The work we do together.
We’re all in on creating an anti-racist culture of belonging.
Across Tufts, we’ve deepened our commitment to making the university a truly inclusive place. Where every member of our community contributes and feels like they belong. Where diverse perspectives are seen as our strength, and great ideas are always heard. In offices, labs, classrooms, and beyond, we’re doing this work together, knowing it is the foundation of our mission to create a brighter world.
Here for one another.
Building community, connections, and support. Tufts Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) are one of the many ways that our staff and faculty build community and connect over shared experiences. ERGs also offer mentoring, professional development, education, and support.
More than words.
