Organiser's Description

About Us 
The Diversity Center of Northeast Ohio is excited to celebrate our 22nd Annual Walk, Rock, Roll and Run in person at the Great Lakes Science Center, Saturday, May 4, 2024. 
The Diversity Center is the leading advocate for justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion in Northeast Ohio. Diversity has been our mission – and our challenge – since 1927. We believe diversity makes us all stronger – in our classrooms, our workplaces, and across our community. But achieving diversity is harder than ever. In today’s polarized environment, anti-Semitism, bigotry, and racism continue to thrive. Our work has never been more important.
When you support our work, you are helping a new generation of students and future leaders embrace their differences and become change agents for inclusion and diversity in our region. For the 2022-2023 fiscal year, our generous donor's support has empowered over 2,000 students and educators to engage in 191 diversity and inclusion centered workshops, equipping them with the knowledge and skills to become leaders and change agents in their schools.
