At the Michigan Notary Association (MINA), we are committed to fostering an inclusive environment where all individuals, regardless of their race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, age, disability, or any other characteristic, are treated with respect, dignity, and fairness. We believe that diversity enriches the notary profession, and it is our mission to ensure that all notaries, as well as the citizens we serve, have equal access to educational resources and opportunities.

Our commitment to equity means that we actively work to remove barriers that may prevent individuals from accessing notary services or receiving the proper education they need to perform notarizations accurately. We are dedicated to creating an environment where every person feels valued and supported in their role as a notary or in their pursuit of notarial services.

As part of our ongoing efforts, we strive to:

• Provide accessible, inclusive educational programs that address the needs of all notaries, with special attention to those who may face systemic barriers.
• Foster a culture of respect and openness in all aspects of our operations and interactions.
• Promote diverse perspectives and inclusive practices that reflect the communities we serve.



The Michigan Notary Association (MINA) is dedicated to ensuring that our work reflects the values of equity, diversity, and inclusion in everything we do.
