Helping Hathaway Dinwiddie on their Diversity, Equity and Inclusion journey
Hathaway Dinwiddie has been working with The Diversity Advisors for over a year and they have been very impactful helping us chart our course through our Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DE&I) journey.
They have provided us tools such as Ask The Diversity Advisors which is a resource our employees use to anonymously ask questions not only about DE&I but also sensitive questions about racism, bias, prejudice ……their answers are thought provoking and very understandable.
Edward and Dawn are very easy to work with and understanding…….they listen to our concerns and adapt to our needs as a company.
I highly recommend them to any firm that would like to explore the positive impacts Diversity, Equity & Inclusion will have on your organization.

Assisting Bayonne School District in formalizing a program to collaborate to make our district welcoming for all
The Bayonne Public School District (New Jersey) is very fortunate to have partnered with The Diversity Advisors. Ed Simon and DM Gilbert are meticulous in their planning and dynamic in their presentation. We have utilized the Blue Ocean Portal to drive conversations with administrators in our district on topics such as Inclusion & Diversity, Leadership, Critical Thinking, and Personal Growth. The Diversity Advisors has assisted in formalizing a program for teachers and administrators to collaborate to make our district welcoming for ALL. This September Ed and DM will be the keynote presenters at our District Staff Convocation. Their message of inclusivity and equity will inform our district professional development plan. It has been a pleasure to work with The Diversity Advisors this past year and we are excited to see it grow and relish in 2022-2023!
