AEC Unites Pledge logo

We are better together. As an AEC Unites member, we pledge to undertake the following concrete actions to build a more inclusive and just industry for the Black community:

  • Eliminate racist policies and practices, moving the conversation from diversity to racial equity.
  • Help close the gender and racial wealth gap by hiring, enabling, and supporting Black-owned businesses.
  • Hire, train, retain, and promote Black talent – from entry-level to the C-suite and boardroom.
  • Require, promote, and support hiring qualified Black firms as Tier 1 suppliers whenever feasible.
  • Enforce strict goals to use minority suppliers on projects.
  • Encourage usage of Black suppliers in under-resourced neighborhoods.
