Cummins selects Rudd for DE&I assignment

 Rudd Resources LLC has been selected to assist Cummins Inc. (NYSE: CMI) in planning and implementing its diversity, equity and inclusion (DE&I) communications strategy. 


Through strategic counsel and content development, Rudd Resources will help Cummins communicate its commitment to workplace and business practices that are equitable and inclusive. The agency also will support the roll out of C.A.R.E (Cummins Advocating for Racial Equity), a movement focusing on four major areas of systemic racism: police reform; broader criminal justice reform; social justice; and economic empowerment.


"Cummins' enthusiasm and commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion has long been engrained in the core of who we are as a company—from our company values and the strategic partnerships we forge with our suppliers to our ongoing civic engagement efforts," said Carole Casto, Vice President of Marketing and Communications at Cummins Inc. “It was therefore important for us to identify a firm that not only matched our values and intentionality, but one that could also help translate our momentum into additional action. After conducting a national search, it was clear that with Rudd’s innovation and breadth of experience in this area, together we can make a real impact for our employees and communities.”

Award for plan, stakeholder engagement

Rudd Resources was part of a team led by The Conservation Fund whose 2019 work has been recognized with a 2020 APA-IL Award in the Healthy & Active Community category. APA-IL is the statewide chapter of the American Planning Association. The team developed a land-acquisition plan for the Forest Preserves of Cook County to support its long-term goals for recreation, restoration and preservation in Chicago's southeast suburbs. This was the first such study that applied a health and equity lens to recommendations. Our agency handled public relations and community engagement, talking with residents, business owners and elected officials to gather insight that informed work by Chloe Gurin-Sands and Josh Ellis at the Metropolitan Planning Council. Next, we worked with the Conservation Fund to write and design the report with support from Catherine Lange Design Services. 

supporting the Just Action Collaborative

Equity means action -- that's the core belief behind Just Action: Racial Equity Collaborative, a new effort to develop a  community of practice to support Chicago's commitment to racial equity.  Rudd Resources is proud to be among the more than 100 organizations and individuals involved in establishing Just Action and signing on to its opening pledge.
