About the event
Between a pandemic, a healthcare system pushed to the brink, economic woes, and identity politics, you might find yourself thinking that you do not have time or skills to create a metaphorical table setting in your organization for underrepresented or marginalized people.
At this two-part workshop facilitated by Us 2 Behavioral Health Care you'll learn why this is the perfect time to consider how inclusive and equitable your nonprofit organization truly is.
As a leader, you are responsible for creating a culture that is inclusive of people and fosters belonging. We recognize the challenges of these goals in a diverse community and are prepared to help you develop excellent and inclusive workspaces for your nonprofit organization.
