Diversity & Inclusion

Human Resource Association of Southern New Jersey (HRA-SNJ), SHRM Chapter 260 membership is both diverse and inclusive. We are comprised of various genders, races, languages, cultures, ages, differing physical abilities, ethnicities, religions, sexual orientations, marital status, parental status, appearances, class, socioeconomic status, educational backgrounds, and job experiences…to mention just a few. These “diversities” add to the culture and richness of our organization and enhances our ability to value, understand and serve our chapter membership.
