DIVERSITY & INCLUSION STATEMENT
Grassroots Creative Company, the website, social media platforms, and myself (Melonie), is and ALWAYS will be antiracist. My team and I believe Black Lives Matter and are committed to diversity, equity, inclusion, and promise to always value, respect, and honor everyone we serve.
While we do primarily market to female-owned businesses, our goal is to work with ALL clients from a wide variety of backgrounds, not just because it's the right thing to do, but because we believe you should be YOU and have every opportunity to grow your business online.
ALL client projects will be considered based on the workload, schedule, and skillset of Grassroots Creative Company without regard to race, color, religion, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, genetics, disability, age, or veteran status.
Grassroots Creative Co. is committed to modeling diversity and inclusion for the entire web design industry and maintaining an inclusive online community where EVERYONE feels valued and respected. We expect and will uphold that the users of this space honor this commitment.
Additionally, we strive to:
- See diversity, inclusion, and equity as vital to our company's mission and critical to the clients we serve.
- Identify and dismantle any inequities within our policies, systems, programs, communications, services, and work.
- Remove any offensive comments, block, and stop working with anyone that exhibits any hateful speech or discrimination toward others.
- Explore potential underlying, unquestioned assumptions that interfere with inclusiveness.
- Practice and encourage transparent communication in all interactions.
- Always lead with respect and tolerance.
