PRSA Richmond’s Statement in Support of PRSA National’s DEI Commitment

PRSA Richmond’s board of directors applauds PRSA National for affirming its unwavering commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) as many organizations roll back their stance amid growing political pressures, which you can view here.

The challenges facing DEI efforts today—whether through misinformation, political and societal pressures or organizational retreat—only reinforce the importance of our work. 

We are a profession rooted in understanding, empathy and collaboration. Limiting perspectives or marginalizing groups counters the very nature of our work.

Our chapter comprises individuals of different races, ethnicities, religions, sexual orientations, gender identities, abilities and lived experiences—and we are better for it. 

PRSA Richmond remains steadfast in championing the principles of fairness, access and opportunity within the public relations profession.

If you would like to learn more about PRSA Richmond’s DEI values or have ideas on how the chapter can enhance its efforts in this space, please visit our website or email our DEI Chair, Jason Lee ([email protected]).
