Aldebol asks about federal diversity policies impact
Aldebol asks if federal opposition to DEI has impacted PSC demographics; Otar says they haven't seen any change and continue to engage qualified individuals.
Has the federal government's opposition to diversity and equity policies impacted the demographics of
recent classes of PSC interns and are there any changes to federal work study eligibility surrounding visas and citizenship status that have changed the population of students
you are able to take in as part of the PSC program?
From our viewpoint, we haven't seen any change.
As you've noticed, we've increased the number of people that are participating in the program, and so we continue to work with the schools to engage those folks that are qualified.
So on our end, we haven't seen any changes.
Okay, thank you.
Turn it over to Councilmember Narcisse if you have any questions.
