Our resources and materials are designed to support ongoing efforts in diversity, equity, and inclusion. They are available for use under the following conditions:
- Use in Hired Engagements
A “hired engagement” refers to any professional setting where our materials are used to deliver paid services, such as workshops, seminars, consulting, or speaking engagements.
Use of our materials in hired engagements requires a paid license or a memorandum of understanding (MOU). Please contact us if you are interested in licensing or if you wish to discuss an MOU.
- Use in Academic Settings
Our resources can be used to supplement curricula in educational settings, including colleges and schools.Â
If your program or department has a budget allocated for curriculum development, we encourage you to support our efforts by licensing the necessary materials. As a small, woman-owned business, our sustainability depends on the support of our clients and collaborators.
