PTA DIVERSITY DEFINITION
Recognizing diversity within organizations means valuing differences and similarities in people through actions and accountability. For ECCC PTA, these differences and similarities include age, ethnicity, language and culture, economic status, educational background, gender, geographic location, marital status, mental ability, national origin, organizational position and tenure, parental status, physical ability, political philosophy, race, religion, sexual orientation, and work experience.
We hope the resources on this page will assist you in creating a school environment that embodies the spirit of acceptance, tolerance and appreciation for every child. Before you start, you might wonder what is the difference between Diversity and Inclusion? There is a Diversity Resource Guide that contains implementation instructions and advice before using the materials. There are also implementation guidelines to help you. The Diversity page on the Georgia PTA website offers additional information.

No Place for Hate
Standing up to bullies and against bigotry is never easy – particularly for young people. This is why the No Place for Hate® initiative empowers the whole school community – teachers and students, administrators and parents – to tackle prejudice, bullying and intergroup conflict. Several of our schools implemented the program in 2011-12. Davis has surplus NPFH bracelets that they are willing to negotiate on price!
