Compartir este evento

We have learned about equity. We have all been privy to what diversity and inclusion means. We have discussed injustices in the places we operate. Now let's talk about how to be a force of change.

Change requires action: join us to continue efforts in unifying our community and start being a force of change! Attendees will gain tools on "how to" move forward, feel motivated to enact change, and learn how to get unstuck.

The Summit will include a powerful message from a National Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Speaker, Kitara Johnson-Jones. You will also hear from the following panelist: Honorable Judge Tracy Flood, Honorable Judge Sharonda Amamilo, and Honorable Judge Cadine Ferguson-Brown.
