What does inclusion look like?
Diversity, equity, and inclusion have become popular buzzwords — but what do they actually mean? In this 90-minute workshop, we will discuss the meanings and history of each, how they differ, and how they should fit into your personal and professional goals. You will leave this interactive workshop with a better understanding of not just the language of equity, but how to apply it to be more inclusive in your daily life.
