WayWesX17 an Xavier Brown Foundation dba The WayWesX17 Homeless Project (WWX17) requires and expects its employees and volunteers to act in accordance with its justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion policy within the workplace, as well as, away from the workplace.

WWX17 is committed to listening and learning as we move forward on the path to justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion. WWX17 will not tolerate discrimination, biases, harassment, or bullying of any kind. Regardless of race, socio-economic status, age, disability, religion, sexual orientation, nationality, gender, or marital status, we are an organization that celebrates the richness of our community. Our organization fosters, cultivates, and preserves a culture where all employees and volunteers can bring their authentic selves to work in an atmosphere that promotes psychological safety and mutual respect.

We will hold ourselves accountable to operate outwardly and inwardly as a learning organization that strives to be actively anti-racist and inclusive. We will prioritize the professional development and learning of our staff, board, and volunteers to build the knowledge and skills to support our goals for justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion. We will amplify other voices when it is not our voice that needs to be heard, we will expect growth from each other and our membership, and we will put the learning into action as we advance towards being advocates and allies.
