On behalf of the Senior Management Team, I write to share our declaration against racism. Read our complete statement.

The senseless murder of George Floyd and other innocent people of color reflects a legacy of hatred, systemic racism, and violence that must be broken.

We stand with the Black community and all people who have endured abuse, discrimination, and mistreatment. We see you. We see what is happening. Your lives matter to us.

We will not tolerate discrimination of any kind.

We commit ourselves to actions to ensure the IUAA is an even more inclusive, supportive, and welcoming community. It is our public commitment to specific behaviors and actions. We expect the Board of Managers and Executive Council to hold us accountable.
