Become a Branches of Belonging Partner
Branches of Belonging Partners recognize that creating a culture of belonging is a shared responsibility. They create spaces in our community where belonging is felt, not just promised. It doesn’t require perfection — just intention. And when that intention is expressed and embraced, belonging grows.
- Welcoming all visitors and coworkers
- Treating everyone fairly and equally
- Using inclusive and thoughtful language
- Listening and leading with openness and curiosity
- Creating a space free from discrimination or harassment
It’s free! Sign the pledge now to receive your visible Symbol of this commitment: a Branches of Belonging window cling for the entrance to your building. Your logo and website will be proudly showcased alongside those of the other partners below.

No matter where your story began, at this time and place, we are connected by shared roots running through neighborhoods, workplaces, generations, shared experiences, and community spaces. Together, we tell the living story of our community. Every person adds a ring, and when we show compassion or create a welcoming space, our connections and shared history are stronger and more vibrant.
