At Discover Preschool, diversity and inclusion are not just words – they are the cornerstone of our organizational culture. We recognize that each individual brings a unique set of experiences, perspectives, and talents to the table, and we believe that harnessing this diversity is essential to our success.
Our initiatives go beyond mere tolerance; they actively promote a sense of belonging and acceptance for all members of our team, regardless of their background, identity, or lived experiences. We understand that true inclusivity requires ongoing effort and commitment, which is why we continuously strive to create a workplace where every person feels valued, respected, and empowered to be their authentic selves.
In practice, this commitment to diversity and inclusion manifests in various ways throughout our organization:
Ultimately, our goal is to create a workplace where every individual feels valued, respected, and empowered to contribute their best work. By embracing diversity and inclusion as core values and embedding them into every aspect of our organization, we believe that we can create positive change, both within our company and beyond. Together, we can build a more inclusive and equitable future for all.
We foster a welcoming environment where every individual feels comfortable and supported. From the moment you step through our doors, you will be greeted with warmth and inclusivity.
We provide equal opportunities for professional growth and development, irrespective of factors such as race, gender, sexual orientation, age, religion, or disability. Advancement within our organization is based on merit, skills, and potential.
We encourage open and honest communication among our team members. We value diverse perspectives and actively seek input from individuals at all levels of the organization. Every voice matters, and every opinion is heard.
We offer training and educational programs to promote awareness and understanding of diversity and inclusion issues. These initiatives help to foster empathy, reduce biases, and create a more inclusive workplace culture.
We are committed to building a diverse workforce that reflects the communities we serve. We actively recruit and retain individuals from underrepresented groups and strive to create a workforce that is reflective of society as a whole.
We have in place policies and practices that support diversity and inclusion, including flexible work arrangements, accommodations for individuals with disabilities, and zero-tolerance policies for discrimination and harassment.
We celebrate the rich tapestry of diversity within our organization. Whether it’s through cultural events, affinity groups, or other initiatives, we take pride in recognizing and honoring the unique backgrounds and identities of our team members.
Discover Preschool strives to ensure that all our employees can perform their job duties safely and effectively. If they require reasonable accommodations in the workplace due to a personal medical-related injury, illness, or disability to fulfill their job’s essential functions, we provide a form specifically designed for workplace accommodations for them to fill out. Our staff’s well-being and ability to thrive in their role are important to us, and we are committed to supporting them in any way we can.

This year we invited and covered the costs for the Women in Corporate Management of Discover Preschool to participate in prestigious networking events like The West Orange Chamber Women’s event held this past March.
