[Colorado-Talk] The Diversity and Inclusion Committee Needs your help

[Darian Smith]

All:
 It is exciting to hear of all the interest in the work  around diversity and inclusion that we will be undertaking as an affiliate.
What I love most about this work is that for it to be successful we all have to be participants in this work and that participation takes so many forms. 
The Diversity Corner  idea is but one way in which we can participate. If you are a member of a chapter, we hope you participate in the discussions that have been happening and continue to happen  in your chapters around this important topic.
If you are planning on attending convention, I hope that you plan to be a part of the dialog around  diversity in whatever form that might take.
If you have an idea or would like to participate  further, Please email myself (dsnfb at gmail.com) so that we can move the dialog forward. I recognize our discussion list can gain steam around a given topic and consequently a thread can really start to grow.
 It is with that in mind that I hope that we can continue gathering interest  off list.
 Happy Friday,
  Darian
