The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) invites you and your Native community to share your lived experiences and ideas for how the agency and its program offices can improve diversity, equity, and inclusion in relationship with Native and Tribal communities. As called for by the Executive Order On Advancing Racial Equity and Support for Underserved Communities Through the Federal Government, ACF’s Equity and Tribal Advisory Groups are pursuing a robust approach to advancing equity. This approach is across all programs and processes, with a focus on people of color and Native peoples who have been historically underserved, marginalized, and adversely affected by persistent poverty and inequality. This includes careful reviews of policies, messaging, grant-making, procurement, human resources, and other processes leading to thoughtful planning and action.
