The D&I Council is chartered and its members appointed, by the Director of the Laboratory. It is the primary body responsible for advising the Director and senior leadership on subjects related to Diversity and Inclusion.

The D&I Council's purview includes all activities in support of the following Lab goals:

  • Diversity - Achieve and sustain a workforce composed of qualified people who proportionally represent the diverse populations that contribute to the advancement of science

  • Inclusion - Achieve and maintain a professional, ethical, tolerant, and respectful work environment in which everyone can contribute to the mission according to his or her talents

To address these goals, the Council will seek ways to maximize the creativity, communication, & collaboration among diverse Lab contributors; with particular attention to recruiting, retaining, and developing STEM women and minorities throughout the Laboratory.
