Speakers
Description
Recent changes in the Federal and R&E landscape have required organizations in the US to make adjustments to community-facing programming, particularly those programs that focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion. As a result, many institutions are crafting new opportunities for professional growth and development within our communities that comply with new restrictions but continue to align with our vision and the services, solutions, and engagement opportunities that we offer. This session will be an open discussion amongst all in attendance, collaboratively sharing how each of our organizations encourages professional growth by partnering with our communities in a manner that enables people of all identities and backgrounds to feel welcome and do their best work. Examples might include internships, mentoring programs, or scholarships for attendance at anchor events that include a cohort experience.
