2. DEI WORKGROUP OPPORTUNITY
by Eva Figueroa
Last spring, I attended the Peralta Equity Conference where I learned of a DEISA workgroup led by folks at Cal State LA and State University of New York (SUNY). Here’s an overview video of the project. They invited participants to join and continue to welcome new participants. I joined and have enjoyed contributing to this important work. If you are interested in joining too, you can sign up here.
