• The call for racial equality sweeping the nation has us all reflecting on what more we can do to advocate for a more diverse, equitable, and inclusive society.
• This is a call to action – our profession needs to reflect the diversity of our communities, promote equity in design and be inclusive to all.
• Grab your favorite libation and participate in how to move these objectives forward.
• Hear from a recent LAF Fellow and LAF Olmsted Scholar as to how his organization is facilitating the pipeline in communities of color; two emerging professionals who have instigated a DEI program in their firm; and an ASLA Fellow whose leadership has actively embraced DEI actions.
