Welcome!
This page serves as both an informational hub and an evolving resource for Sun Devil Athletics personnel, student-athletes, and the SDA community to better understand the importance of implementing perspectives and programming focused on Inclusive Excellence.
We are dedicated to cultivating a family-like environment in which all voices are considered equal and encouraged to be heard. It is our sincere belief that valuing the voices of our diverse population is the pathway for us to create an environment characterized by respect, compassion, and inclusion where ALL will be and feel welcome.
Inclusive Excellence is a constant learning process and we hope you will find this page and its resources helpful to stay vigilant and active in learning more about how you can better contribute to a progressive community. Education can be one of the most empowering forces in the world. We encourage everyone to use education as the vehicle to lead the change as we move towards creating spaces not only in our Sun Devil community but in the world.
