Creating a Sense of Belonging Through Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Anti-Racism

The last year or so sparked nationwide conversations and protests about racism, equity and discrimination. Many organizations reflected internally on whether they were doing enough. While most companies are committed to maintaining an unprejudiced workplace, studies and reality show that many organizations still have work to do.
