NEC Society Policies
Inclusivity Statement
The Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) Society is a 501(c)(3) nonpartisan organization that deliberately prioritizes equity and diversity. The NEC Society works to build an ever-more inclusive community, internal and external of our organization. We aim to ensure all individuals and groups touched by NEC see themselves reflected within the organization and feel a sense of belonging. The NEC Society works to elevate women, people of color, the LGBTQIA+ community, people with disabilities, and groups that have been historically marginalized.
We recognize that simply valuing diversity and inclusion is not enough. The NEC Society is dedicated to transforming our values into action, and we are constantly working to improve. We are stronger together. Together, we are better equipped to build a more just, equitable world without this devastating disease. You can join the global NEC community that’s bringing together patient-families, clinicians, researchers, and other people who care to #preventNEC
