UPCOMING EVENTS

MEMBER ENGAGEMENT SESSION: Intersectionality: What It Is and Why Does It Matter? 

June 17th | 1:00pm EST

Many organizations have made good progress in improving the diversity of their workforce in recent years. BUT could understanding and embracing intersectionality help them improve the experience of all employees? Diversity is not a singular characteristic. Many still consider their diversity efforts by addressing distinct, singular characteristics like gender, race, ethnicity, sexuality, and disability. The reality is that many of the characteristics overlap and intersect with each other. Intersectionality is the overlapping and intersection of such identities and recognizing the differences both between and within them, as well as the overall effect this can have on individual’s experiences.


Join Tracey Crawford and Oralethea Davenport for this informative session.
