Diversity, Inclusion, and Access

Allerton Park and Retreat Center strives to be a reflection of the diverse communities we serve by providing a safe and welcoming space where people of all cognitive and physical abilities, socioeconomic statuses, ages, and ethnic, racial, sexual, gender, and religious identities can thrive.

Find information on Park accessibility here.

The Diversity, Inclusion, and Access (DIA) Committee was started to ensure that creating an inclusive environment for everyone is an ongoing initiative throughout all facets of Allerton. The mission of the DIA Committee is to: Create, promote, and sustain an environment where all are welcomed to engage with and be inspired by nature, history, and the arts. We will be persistent and intentional in our efforts to ensure diversity, inclusion, and accessibility throughout our programming, events, formal and natural spaces, while celebrating the uniqueness of all individuals, Allerton Park, and its legacy.

Prior to each biweekly meeting, the DIA Committee reviews educational content for discussion. See what they are reading/listening to/watching here. Find additional resources here.
