About Equity Chats
Equity Chats are open to all and will provide a reflective space for community members, staff, volunteers, and board members to listen to each other and learn about ourselves. It’s an opportunity to grow in awareness, challenge assumptions, and take intentional steps toward becoming more anti-racist, both individually and as a community.
