Hosted by Huron-Clinton Metroparks as a part of their DEI speaker series , Anthony Abraham Jack will discuss the topic “Access is NOT Inclusion”. In this talk, he will help the audience think about the topics of recruitment and retention differently through the examination of taken-for-granted policies and practices that advantage some and place undue burdens on others.
