# Citizen Code of Conduct
# Code of Conduct

## 1. Purpose

A primary goal of Code Of Conduct is to be inclusive to the largest number of contributors, with the most varied and diverse backgrounds possible.

NASA recognizes and supports the benefits of having diverse and inclusive scientific, engineering, and technology communities and fully expects that such values will be reflected in open source project teams. Discrimination and harassment, including sexual harassment, are not tolerated by NASA. Having a diverse, inclusive, and safe workplace is essential to achieving the excellence for which NASA strives.
