Democrats for Diversity & Inclusion (DDI) Scholarship Program
Democrats for Diversity & Inclusion (DDI) is committed to promoting, protecting, and preserving diversity and inclusion in America. Given the current political climate, many institutions – eg, colleges and universities – are pulling back from this goal. DDI is as committed to DEI now as it has ever been. We have decided to step in and do what we can to continue the promotion of DEI. Our scholarship program is a major part of this effort!
