All too often, DEI professionals are asked to launch Employee Resource Groups (ERGs)/Affinity Groups on the fly with nary any guidance on how to structure them, launch them, or facilitate the discussions. This session is a crash course into ERGs/Affinity Groups with a focus on how to facilitate them. We will go from the conception of the idea through launch of the ERG/Affinity Group with a focus on facilitating discussions such that you learn how to cultivate safe, brave spaces. We are going to learn (a lot, I hope) and have a little fun. Remember: ERGs/Affinity Groups are your friend.
We are America’s oldest and largest nonprofit association devoted to excellence in the delivery of legal services to those who cannot afford counsel. There is no other legal organization that touches on all the access points of poverty as does NLADA.
