Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Statement

At Make It Home, we believe embracing diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging is essential to effectively fulfilling our mission and serving our community.

​

We celebrate the rich diversity within the San Francisco Bay Area and strive to ensure it is reflected in our team, volunteers, and the people we serve. Through our commitment to diversity and our embrace of partnerships that reach out broadly, we work to ensure that our impact is far-reaching and inclusive.

​

Our commitment to equity drives our efforts to break down barriers and provide fair access to resources and opportunities. We work to support individuals and families from all walks of life, especially those who have faced systemic inequities, ensuring that everyone can have dignity and pride in their homes.

​

We seek to create an inclusive environment where all voices are heard, respected, and valued. We believe that inclusion is essential to innovation and problem-solving and helps us better serve the community.

​

Creating a sense of belonging is central to our approach. We strive to ensure that our staff and volunteers feel welcomed and valued, and in our work, curate home items that will encourage the individuals and families we serve to feel more comfortable in their new chosen communities.

​

These principles, along with our vital partnerships, guide our actions and decisions, helping us better serve our community and fulfill our mission. We recognize that this is an ongoing journey, not a finished task, and we are committed to continuously learning, improving, and deepening our efforts as we move forward.
