Resources
At ADEPT, we believe that understanding, learning, and action all begin with access to the right information. Our resource library brings together trusted materials to help individuals organizations, and communities deepen their knowledge of culturally and linguistically appropriate services (CLAS), cultural and linguistic competence, diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), and merit, excellence, and intelligence (MEI) across various industries and fields of practice.
We’ve organized these materials into easy-to-navigate sections that include foundational definitions for key principles and concepts, technical assistance policies, articles, toolkits, videos and podcasts, as well as a specialized hub for maternal and child health. Each section features curated resources, practical guidance, and links to expert organizations and research that expand on key topics.
