Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

A strong community is one where all are welcomed, included and supported. To achieve this vision for the CRE community, NAIOPWA established a Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) initiative in 2017 with the mission to build and develop a diverse, equitable and inclusive culture. 

• Statement on  AAPI-directed hate crimes
• Statement of solidarity with communities facing racism and all other forms of inequality and injustice 

The DEI Committee works to ensure that chapter programming, events and other activities proportionally reflect our diverse market, with a focus on acting as a resource and leveraging partnerships to attract and develop diverse talent industry-wide.
