EDI OPEN CONVERSATIONS SCHEDULED

WLA's EDI Committee is happy to bring back our Open Conversations series in 2022, and you're invited! 

Join us on January 18, 2022 at 4:00 pm to discuss microaggressions. What are they? How do they impact our lives and the lives of those we serve? Members of the EDI Committee will facilitate the conversation, but ultimately, we're there to learn alongside you. 

Prior to joining us on January 18, please take about 30 minutes total to read (or listen to) this interview and then read this short essay. Don't have enough time to read these? Not a problem! We'll start the session with a brief video to get the conversation going. 

To register, visit here. Please note that Open Conversations will not be recorded. We'll send out a reminder as the date approaches.

Open Conversations are also scheduled for February 15, 2022 and March 15, 2022 at 4:00 pm.

Guidelines for these conversations are available on the WLA website. Please contact Conrrado Saldivar if you have any questions.
