Wednesday March 9th - 5pm

Understanding your Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Blueprint

Session Description

Our DEI blueprints are the starting point. They may affect us in ways we are consciously aware of as well as having an influence on our unconscious biases and blindspots through things that were openly, tacitly, and accidentally taught by our parental impacters, teachers, leaders, friends, etc. This session will help attendees identify DEI blindspots and provide strategies for creating or strengthening your choir's DEI initiatives.
