DPEN Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion

DPEN is committed to anti-racism, justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion. We strive to promote these values in our work and engage in continual learning.

DEI Training for Long-Term Care

DPEN West Coast has partnered with the Cross Cultural Health Care Program—with support from the Health Resources and Services Administration—to create diversity, equity, and inclusion training modules for long-term care facilities.  

The free “Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) in Long-Term Care” course is now available.

The free “Understanding and Interrupting Barriers to Equitable and Inclusive Long-Term Care” course is now available.

Community Advisory Board

We are in the process of dreaming up a community advisory board of people living with dementia and care partners to inform and shape our work.   People with these lived experiences have the most important voices that we must listen to.  If you are a care partner or person living with dementia and are interested in getting involved with DPEN, please contact us.
