Members of the Core Leadership Team will share the findings and key recommendations of the CCE Cultural Assessment.

The goal of this process is to:

– Make data accessible to all ED’s in advance of dissemination to all CCE staff
– Promote greater DEIB/Antiracism ownership, influence, and accountability based on data across the CCE system
– Identify differentiated DEIB/Antiracism action steps based on programs areas and/or regions
– Create greater alignment between identified DEIB/Antiracism needs and resources
