This intensive workshop series is designed to equip you to develop the skills needed to translate institutional values and aspirations into tangible actions that close equity gaps in policies, practices, experiences, and outcomes among groups that have been historically excluded, marginalized, and underserved. The series will offer a highly engaging, fast-paced opportunity to learn, share, reflect and practice skills for equity-minded leadership.
All sessions will be hosted on Tuesdays from 4:30-6:30 PM ET.
