DEIB (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, Belonging) Committee

The DEIB Committee (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging) works to ensure that our community is a place where differences are welcomed, different perspectives are respectfully heard and where every individual feels a sense of belonging. DEIB hosts an annual public program on this topic and reaches out to under-represented groups in Falmouth.
