DIVERSITY AWARENESS
MONTH
The month of October, 2004
commemorates Diversity Awareness Month, a nationwide initiative
recognizing
how organizations
and individuals understand, appreciate, and manage differences
and similarities throughout the world. Founded by speaker,
consultant and radio talk show host Carole Copeland Thomas,
this special month was created to assist in the proactive
development of creating or maintaining an ongoing diversity
initiative both on and off the job.
From a simple bulletin
board to a full blown off site diversity retreat, diversity
awareness can be designed to reflect
the attitudes, values and strategic focus of organizations
both large and small. Since there is never just one way
to approach the concept, Diversity Awareness Month helps
frame the variety of methods to incorporate the concept
into day to day activities.
Suggested tip sheets, helpful
articles and important statistical information is included
in the FREE Diversity Awareness
Month information kit. It can be downloaded under the

from high school six
days earlier, and was the recipient of a full academic scholarship
from Morehouse
College in Atlanta.

resources on handling peer pressures and making sound
decisions will be included in Student Safety Month information
kit and are now available.
