Event Details

THIS IS A FREE LIVE WEBINAR FOR PENNSYLVANIA APARTMENT ASSOCIATION MEMBERS AND GUEST.

Join us for a PAA members and guest only LIVE webinar on The State of DE&I in America-August 28, 2024 from Noon - 12:45 pm.  This LIVE webinar aims to explore the critical role of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I) in today's workplace and society, delving into the risks and consequences if DE&I initiatives are diminished or eliminated. Participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of how DE&I has shaped more inclusive work environments and supported marginalized communities. By examining the history and development of DE&I—from civil rights legislation to the resurgence of DE&I commitments following the murder of George Floyd—participants will recognize the lasting contributions of DE&I and its impact on corporate America and beyond. The session will also address the politicization of DE&I, recent trends such as diversity fatigue, and the rollback of DE&I efforts in both corporate and educational settings. By the end of the session, participants will leave with actionable insights on how to advocate for and sustain DE&I within their own organizations and communities.
