At Washington State University we believe that every student should have the resources and opportunities needed to reach their own full potential and to succeed in their chosen careers.

The ASCC recognizes that Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) job applicants often face challenges in the hiring process, including discrimination and bias. We welcome you to utilize our resources and take advantage of the support we offer as you embark on your professional journey. We value diversity and embrace the unique perspectives and experiences that each student brings to the table.

Further on this page you will find career development and workers rights resources for all identities, please feel free to explore, or make an appointment with us to address your concerns, work through challenges, and strengthen your application materials.

The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) supports the development and growth of minority-owned small businesses and entrepreneurs through counseling and training, funding programs, SBA contracting certifications, and partnerships with federal agencies and resource partners.

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) enforces federal laws that make it illegal to discriminate against a job applicant or an employee because of the person’s race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy, gender identity, and sexual orientation), national origin, age (40 or older), disability or genetic information.

Washington State Human Rights Commission provides information and forms for Washington States complaint submission for violations of anti-discrimination laws.

The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) provides legal advocacy and defends the individual rights and liberties guaranteed by the Constitution and laws of the United States.

A coalition of over 240 BIPOC-led nonprofits in Washington state are working together to promote wellness, restore resources, and advocate for their communities, with the goal of nourishing collective well-being and generating shared abundance.
