Celebrating Inclusion: NOVA’s DEI Campus Resource Maps and Campus Accessibility Maps
In our commitment to embrace diversity and ensure inclusivity across our campuses, NOVA has introduced two vital resources. Our new Diversity & Inclusion Campus Resource Maps and Campus Accessibility Maps aim to enhance accessibility and support way-finding for everyone within our diverse community.
The Diversity & Inclusion Resource Maps pinpoint the location of important amenities such as single-occupancy restrooms, meditation rooms, accessible parking and lactation spaces. In addition, the maps provide contact information to obtain electronic keyed access to lactation rooms, ensuring privacy, convenience and safety.
Our Campus Accessibility Maps highlight the location of accessible parking spots, but also provide accurate information about elevator locations, accessible entrances and power-assisted doors.
Both types of maps will be updated annually as NOVA as the resources available continue to grow.
Special thanks to our colleagues in Facilities, Planning & Support Services for helping to ensure our campuses have inclusive resources and spaces. Additional thanks to the NOVA DEI Office, DEI Council and the NOVA’s graphics team for their collective assistance in creating maps that align with the College brand.
“Our goal with these maps is to empower every member of our community and every campus visitor,” said Dr. Nathan Carter, chief diversity, equity and inclusion officer. “We want everyone to feel valued and supported with these resources as they pursue their educational journey.”
These maps underscore NOVA’s dedication to providing equitable access to exceptional and affordable higher education by working to foster a truly inclusive campus environment. By embracing diversity in tangible ways, NOVA continues to transform lives and expand opportunities within our broader community.
