Racial Equity: Promote racial equity across all dimensions, including with LAJC, by doing the following: Helping to recruit, retina, and support both staff and leadership that reflect the racial composition of our community;Cultivating respect for the work of and expanding resources for non-attorney staff that are disproportionately people of color;Creating spaces for staff to discuss issues of racial, gender, and all other issues of marginalization; andPushing for institutional and cultural changes by management, the board, and staff to further promote racial equity. For example, the attorney may work on a cross programmatic team to help develop and implement strategies to end mass detention and deportation of immigrants in Virginia, break the ties between immigration enforcement and local and state government and law enforcement, ensure that immigrant communities remain intact and protected in Virginia, fight the separation of immigrant families and the exclusion of immigrants from state benefits like in-state tuition, and protect immigrants across the Commonwealth whether they are in federal custody or in their communities.
