Our hearts are heavy in the wake of ongoing violence against people of color. Gemma is committed to working together as an organization to help shine a light on the plight of groups marginalized in our community and country. This commitment aligns with our core beliefs and long history of working toward a bright future for all people in our communities who are facing steep challenges. At Gemma, one of our stated core values is:

• Diversity, inclusion, a community where everyone belongs.

And so, we reaffirm our commitment to being the change we seek in the world, and we stand against hate and racism of any kind.
