The City of Marysville recognizes the important value diversity has in our community. To us there are many facets of a diverse society which include, but are not limited to, race, religion, ethnicity, gender, socio-economic level, mental and physical differences, age and sexual orientation.
Established in 2010, the Mayor’s Diversity Advisory Committee (DAC) works to identify issues, prioritize support, and ensure that the diverse character of the community is represented in decision-making processes with regards to diversity and inclusion. Committee members should reflect the racial, ethnic and socioeconomic diversity of the Marysville-Tulalip area.
