Description
How To Be An Ally
In this panel discussion, moderated by Susie Silver with The Diversity Movement, audience members will have the opportunity to explore organizations through panelists who will speak to the importance of diversity, equity and inclusion and what each audience member can do to be an everyday ally. From this event, audience members can expect to take a personal look through their own DEI journey and learn a new way to be an ally that will easily fit into their everyday life both personally and professionally. This is an informational and educational program.

About The Power of Inclusion Series
Organizations and institutions across the country are quickly realizing that diversity cannot be the end goal. Instead, we must develop safe, open, and inclusive environments for all to collaborate and co-exist. This series highlights a specific topic of diversity, equity, and inclusion on a deeper level, giving business and community leaders additional resources to be inclusive in their everyday lives.
"We commit to building a better Wake. We will not shy away from our history, and will call out realities, even the ones that cause discomfort. We will invest in understanding the issues facing our community and commit to taking steps to tangibly fix them."
