@ExperimentsInHonesty @JessicaLucindaCheng
I am working on #4120 - Yes "Diversity / Equity / Inclusion" will work - I just checked.

(The previous "Diversity, Equity & Inclusion" had problems not only because of the "&" but also because of the ",". Even removing the ampersand, with the comma the dropdown was splitting into two unique program areas of "Diversity" and "Equity and Inclusion" . )

Perfect! Let's make that change (change the Program Area to be Diversity / Equity / Inclusion) on this issue. Which solves the problem, It's a better solution than editing the script.

@ExperimentsInHonesty @JessicaLucindaCheng While I am changing the cards to Diversity / Equity / Inclusion, do we want to change the 'Join Us' page (it needs a comma at least...):

do we want to change the 'About' page:

and finally the title on the Program Areas page:

@t-will-gillis Go ahead and make an ER for updating it to say Diversity, Equity & Inclusion every place that does not use a dropdown or other feature that would make that non feasible.

@t-will-gillis are you putting in a pr on this issue to change the text in the project.md files from

program-area: 
  - Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

to

program-area: 
  - Diversity / Equity / Inclusion

for the following projects?

• New Schools Today
• Write for All

Or are you making new issues for those two files and the changes?

[t-will-gillis]

@ExperimentsInHonesty PR #4270 is in review currently and will change both new-schools-today.md and writeforall.md to:

program-area: 
  - Diveristy / Equity / Inclusion

Then there are three separate issues for changing program area to be Diversity, Equity & Inclusion everywhere else if it will not cause a bug:

• Make Program Area Consistent on Program Areas Page #4284
• Make Program Area Consistent on About Us Page #4286
• Make Program Area Consistent on Join Us Page #4287

Is this what you are asking?
