OC Together: Going Beyond the Statements

Building more inclusive communities

In moments of national tragedy and collective outrage, organizations sometimes struggle with the question of what to do beyond issuing position statements. At the same time, there is often pressure to quickly “take action” regardless of whether an organization has the knowledge or preparation to wade into what may be complex, contentious, sensitive social issues. Where do we go from here? OC Together’s mission is to answer this question, mobilizing and empowering local organizations to enhance diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) in the county.

OC Together is a project of Orange County Human Relations Council (OC Human Relations), which has been bringing diverse people together to solve the county’s critical human relations issues for almost 30 years. In keeping with this mission, we have brought back OC Together to mobilize and empower organizations to promote DEI, making our County better for all.
