Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

Staff seek to make DRA a more welcoming and inclusive workplace by improving hiring and retention practices.

Protecting Against Burnout

Flexible work and generous time off–included protected leaves for parents, caregivers, and people with disabilities–are necessary to do the important work that we all do.

Fair Pay for All Staff

Significant updates to the pay scales help mitigate skyrocketing inflation, and improve our ability to recruit and retain support staff.
