Equity Statement

Public media belongs to you. All of you. KERA is committed to representing and celebrating our entire community.

We believe in DEI - diversity, equity and inclusion - in all aspects of our organization, including our service to audiences, the makeup of our staff and the communities represented in our programming. This is a core priority that is infused in every action we take. As a public service, KERA holds a responsibility to engage the communities we reach equitably - to serve the underserved and create opportunities for those who have been overlooked.

Our goal is to provide a culture of belonging - on the air, online and in the halls of our facilities, and our interactions with the community - that includes diversity of ethnicity, race, gender and gender identity, age, language, sexual orientation, socioeconomic background and physical ability.
