LLE Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Council Mission Statement: It is our mission to enact a cultural shift where the Laboratory for Laser Energetics (LLE) prioritizes acceptance, inclusion, and equity by working toward systemic change, advocating for equal opportunity, and creating a more diverse workforce. A disproportional lack of representation and opportunities exists for Women, Black and Indigenous people, and other People of Color, which creates our need to effectively support those with historically marginalized experiences and their intersecting identities. We strive to promote a clear understanding of equity and diversity by educating our community and fostering inclusion in our workforce across race, gender, sexual orientation, ability, class, age, ethnicity, and education level. We are committed to achieving a climate of acceptance and inclusion, where diversity is celebrated.
