members. As we serve all our members and their needs, we are committing more time and resources to recruit, nominate, welcome, and get involved with diverse in-house and outside counsel.
Our Diversity Committee will focus on:
• Increasing our diversity by identifying and nominating diverse in-house counsel and outside counsel;
• Developing our newer, diverse members into vibrant, enthusiastic FDCC leaders;
• Encouraging a diversity of members to write and speak at our events to prepare them to join FDCC leadership;
• Engaging our diverse members and welcoming them into our community;
• Talking and listening to our diverse members and responding to what they tell us;
• Working with our sister organizations to mutually enhance our diversity efforts;
• Creating a safe space where we can share diverse views and perspectives and engage in thoughtful and productive
•
dialogue through Diversity Breakfasts at our meetings and Diversity Webinars throughout the year; and
Working through social media to engage diverse members.
If you are interested in being a part of this effort from an organizational perspective, please feel free to contact me.
