Non‑Discrimination Policy
Clear Tomorrow KC is committed to an inclusive, equitable environment for every person we serve, employ, and partner with — equity is essential to our mission.
Our commitment
Equity is the point, not an afterthought
As an organization working to dismantle the lifelong barriers caused by mass incarceration and criminal records, we recognize that equity has to run through everything we build. We prohibit discrimination, harassment, or exclusion of any kind in the delivery of our services, our employment practices, our volunteer opportunities, and our organizational partnerships.
