Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

First_Day_Of_Classes

The University of Virginia Career Center is committed to diverse and inclusive practices in all facets of counseling, programming, and career development. All students’ backgrounds, perspectives, and identities are valued and respected as we acknowledge the systemic forms of discrimination that have marginalized underrepresented and underserved students.

We aim to use an intersectional approach in our services and be mindful of how power, privilege, and bias are at play within the employment process. To create an environment where all students feel welcomed, celebrated, and heard, we invite feedback and dialogue on how we can better meet these goals.
