Happy International Women’s Day! 🎉🥳 We are so excited to share in this year’s mission to #EmbraceEquity! Read what the staff has to say about embracing equity below:
“I work in an office dominated by women. I believe strongly in gender equality and women’s empowerment. I am excited to celebrate this day because it shows appreciation for women’s advancement and achievement. This day also reminds me of the work I still have to do to be a better ally and to make our community equitable for all.”
