For more than 20 years, Marvin Worthy has been committed to minimizing the devastation caused by a lack of civility and a sense of belonging. As the President and CEO of Worthy Consulting & Training, Worthy has assisted colleges and universities like Penn State, University of Maryland-College Park, Carnegie Mellon University, James Madison University, University of Pittsburgh, and organizations like Dentsply International, Inc., Franklin County Housing Authority, and Glatfelter Insurance Group in building inclusive educational and workplace communities and culturally competent students and staff. Interacting with thousands of participants per year, Worthy has made it his mission to inspire and motivate his audiences to include not exclude, to accept not reject, and to act not ignore.

In recognition of his many contributions to diversity and service to the community, Worthy is the recipient of the Shippensburg University Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. March for Humanity Award and Outstanding Effort Award, the ACT 101 Distinguished Service Award, the University of Delaware Richard A. Wilson Outstanding Service Award, the Pennsylvania Black Conference on Higher Education Appreciation and Outstanding Service Award, and the YMCA Community Development Award.

Worthy reminds us,

Acceptance is a little thing that makes a big difference!
