Committee Charge

The IDEA (Inclusion, Diversity, Equity and Accessibility) Committee was established to integrate inclusivity, diversity, equity, and accessibility into ETC programs, communications, and activities.  IDEA serves as an advisory body to the ETC Board, committees, and task forces, to ensure that diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility values, practices, and principles are considered in all aspects of the organization’s work.  Additionally, IDEA will collect benchmarking data gathered from yearly surveys to identify timely tasks and projects that will further promote diversity, equity, inclusivity, and accessibility in the ETC organization.

Expected Time Commitment

The expected time commitment for volunteers is 2-3 hours a month.
