NOVEMBER 10 • 2022 | 23 J ARC, a nonprofit orga- nization serving adults with developmental dis- abilities in Metro Detroit, was honored Oct. 13 as a Diversity Champion in Corp! maga- zine’s 15th Annual Salute to Diversity Awards. The award is given to leaders, companies and organizations that champion diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives and achieve- ments in their organizations. JARC is honored to be rec- ognized for its efforts to create an inclusive work environment that celebrates its employees and values each of their unique perspectives. “Employing a diverse group of people ensures that you don’t miss new opportunities for innovation and growth. At JARC, diversity ensures we can best meet the needs of the peo- ple we serve, ” said JARC CEO Shaindle Braunstein. JARC employs a diverse staff, supports communication between all levels of the orga- nization and trains employees in cultural competency. The nonprofit’s equity practices provide opportunities and sup- port through offering financial incentives for good work, edu- cational opportunities, higher pay than most healthcare pro- viders in the area and competi- tive benefits packages. There are several donor-sponsored initiatives, including a grant for emergen- cies that covers costs such as car repairs, medical bills, family funerals and other unforeseen circumstances. JARC also offers a staff mentorship program and has an in-house employee support coordinator who con- nects staff to resources for such personal needs as food, gas, housing, clothing, childcare, car repair and other essentials. The organization is contin- ually looking for new ways to promote diversity in its work- place and ensure that its staff’s needs are being met so they can best meet the needs of the peo- ple JARC serves. Nearly 200 local leaders who are focused on DEI efforts gathered to celebrate this year’s Diversity Award winners, gain insight from a panel of three DEI leaders and the event’s key- note speaker, and network with others making a change within their organizations.
