IDEA Advisory Committee
Croton-on-Hudson’s Board of Trustees chartered the Village’s Diversity and Inclusion Committee on November 5, 2018. In January of 2024, the Committee was renamed the Inclusion, Diversity, Equity and Accessibility (IDEA) Advisory Committee to reflect its expanded mission:
Inclusion – The committee aims to broaden communication among community groups, Village entities and individuals, with emphasis on amplifying marginalized voices.
Diversity – The committee intends to celebrate the contributions of our community’s diverse make-up and promote cross-cultural understanding through support and coordination of cultural and educational programs.
Equity – The committee is dedicated to the equitable sharing of Village resources. Through research, advising and outreach, the committee's goal is to promote fair allocation of services and resources for equitable outcomes.
Accessibility – The committee is dedicated to identifying and dismantling barriers to access services, resources, and information.
Advisory – The committee provides guidance, research and outreach on IDEA issues pertinent to the Village of Croton-on-Hudson.
