The mission of Diversity Committee is to advocate for the inclusion and advancement of marginalized and underrepresented groups in the structural engineering community. We hold events and provide resources to the SEAoNY membership to raise awareness and foster dialogue among all members of the professional workplace, with the goal of developing solutions through worker-friendly and equitable work-place policies.

Our vision is a more diverse and inclusive community with better collaboration in the workplace and longer-term employee retention.

We believe a community that works together and is inclusive will benefit from the best and brightest engineers when their voices are heard, their contribution is respected, and their potential is valued. We believe a diverse and inclusive structural engineering community will be most effective and productive in the interest of advancing the field.
