Allyship: Advancing Diversity and Inclusion

Course Description

Are you interested in becoming an ally? You can start by learning the three basic steps to defining your allyship journey. As our society continues to be faced with a number of social crises, many people desire to take the necessary steps to be an ally for different groups, such as the AAPI community, the BIPOC community, or the LGBTQIA+ community. You can learn how to define and leverage your allyship, and walk away with a template to help guide your learning and steps for action.
