Empowering Women through Diversity & Inclusion
Open Forum is a series for member discussion with the purpose to create dialogue on important topics to raise awareness, gain insights, and spark ideas.
This month we will be talking about Diversity and Inclusion, women in the workplace, and BIPOC women. The format will include some background and statistics, and then questions for open discussion. Let’s start the conversation; we want to hear your voice!
