Kaizen Food Rescue is committed to creating a safe, inclusive, and welcoming environment for all people, regardless of their race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, disability, veteran status, or any other protected characteristic.

We believe that justice, diversity, equity, and inclusion are essential to achieving our mission of improving food justice and health equity in communities facing food apartheid. We are committed to building a food system that is sustainable, equitable, and inclusive for all, and we strive to create brave spaces where all voices can be heard and uplifted.

We do not discriminate on the basis of any protected characteristic in any of our programs, activities, or employment practices. We also prohibit retaliation against any individual who has made a complaint of discrimination or who has assisted in an investigation of discrimination.

We are committed to promoting an environment that is free from discrimination and harassment, and we encourage all members of our community to report any instances of discrimination or harassment to the appropriate authorities. We will take prompt and appropriate action to address any reported incidents and ensure that those who have experienced discrimination or harassment are supported and protected.

We are committed to ongoing self-reflection and improvement in our efforts to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion. We will work to identify and address any barriers to inclusion and to create a culture that values and respects all members of our community.
