SOCAN is committed to fostering accessibility, diversity, equity, and inclusivity in all aspects of our organization – from hiring practices and programming to community outreach. Our pursuit of this work is ongoing and ever-evolving, and it is guided by our values of cultivating collaboration, developing understanding, and striving for climate justice.
