April is Diversity Month, a time to recognize and celebrate all the unique cultures, backgrounds, and rich traditions that make up the Shoreline community.
We are a community of people that come from a multitude of backgrounds and beliefs, but we all share a desire to feel welcomed and valued.
Celebrating our diversity creates cultural awareness, which helps create spaces of inclusion and fosters belonging where people feel valued.
