Chattanooga Times Free Press: Promoting diversity and equity with new community inclusion index

Hinton & Company’s DEIB Collaborative brings together Chattanooga’s DEI leaders to connect, learn and collaborate to form a more inclusive community.

We want to thank every person and organization who took Chattanooga’s Community Culture Index™ (CCI) survey. Our mission is to advance organizational and institutional progress toward a more inclusive workplace culture.

The CCI is a highly localized, powerful, innovative data-driven assessment tool meant to reveal the most important insights about how your organization is performing and where to take action.

What’s next? We'll be analyzing the data over the next month on how we can work to increase inclusion in Chattanooga. This allows us to share strategies and solutions, so that we can all be champions for inclusive workplaces and community spaces.
