Message and New Initiative from the NAAP Board of Directors on Racial Inequality
The National Association of Activity Professionals stands in solidarity with those experiencing the unjust impacts of racial inequality. We remain consistent with our Mission to deliver person-centered care and supporting cultural competencies. Our organization embraces the truth that all people should be respected and treated equally regardless of race, age, gender, orientation, birthplace and religious belief.
NAAP is committed to using the lessons learned from systemic racism to enhance the content of our standards and education. NAAP will be initiating a Cultural Competency Committee. We encourage all who wish to be a part of the initiative in continuing to provide excellence in support services. NAAP sees this moment in history as an opportunity to elicit change for the betterment of the Activity Profession and for all those whom we serve.
