Our Commitment to Social Justice

Structural racism still exists in Northeast Ohio and across our country. We at Beech Brook see this every day in the social injustices that impact the lives of our clients, staff and others and severely impede our ability to help our community’s children and families thrive.

Beech Brook values diversity and inclusion. We are committed to listening and learning with open hearts and open minds so that we can create positive change and shape a better future for our colleagues, the families we serve and everyone in our community. We will continue to hold ourselves accountable for our actions and inactions, as we work toward a world where social injustice and structural racism no longer exist.
