I will not be here on the 14th but I recommend that other chapter members attend this free training. I have registered for and will be attending the one on December 12.

It will be extremely helpful to understand the importance of our recent diversity and inclusion initiatives in Nfb as well as give you more language to talk about intersectionality, Equity, stepping back when you have privilege, and the difference between justice and rights.
