AANC Moves Forward with DEI Initiatives

During the March 2025 meeting of the AANC Board of Directors, the DEI Committee submitted a statement for approval, confirming AANC's continued commitment to DEI. The board reviewed, approved, and supports the following:

The Apartment Association of North Carolina (AANC) is steadfast in its commitment to fostering an inclusive and welcoming environment for all individuals in the housing and apartment industry. We recognize that recent developments regarding DEI have raised questions and concerns about the future of DEI initiatives. Rest assured, AANC’s DEI Committee and programs remain unwavering in their focus and are guided by our core values: promoting equitable access to opportunity, creating safe and inclusive spaces, and fostering a sense of belonging for all.

AANC’s DEI efforts are designed to serve our diverse membership and provide resources that support inclusive policies within the housing industry. In this period of change and reflection, we reaffirm our dedication to supporting and advancing initiatives that uplift all voices. AANC is committed to working alongside our members to ensure that diversity, equity, and inclusion remain foundational to the work we do today and for generations to come.
