Anti-Racism

At Orchid Behavioral Care we are beyond saddened and outraged over the continued racial injustices occurring throughout our communities. We are committed to actively participating in anti-racism. Here is a list of our current goals:
  • Expand our company library to not only include books with Children of Color but also books that teach about being anti-racist
  • Donate monthly to businesses owned by People of Color and autism-related causes for People of Color
  • Routinely engage with our equity consultants to speak to staff and me about being anti-racist
  • Develop an equity statement and adjust our business plan to ensure actions we will take
  • Host speakers to talk to employees and families about anti-racism
  • Provide more resources on our website and Facebook that educate about being anti-racist
  • Actively celebrate the cultures of our employees and families
  • Investigate ways to fund Children of Color receiving services and getting diagnosed
  • Support organizations that are commited to change
  • Encourage employees and clients to view Black programming and social media​

As part of our committment to push back against racism, we have provided the following resources in the areas of:
