Join Us for DEI Drop-Ins
By member request, we’re trying something new: DEI Drop-Ins. These virtual, informal, short sessions create space for connecting, learning from and building community with one another, especially during this period when the news is moving fast, our communities are struggling and communicators are expected to hold it all together.

We’ll provide one to two discussion prompts to get you started and then you’ll spend 20 minutes in a small group breakout with the opportunity to talk with and pick the brains of other communicators who are dealing with similar situations and work as you.

Who Should Attend
These sessions are designed for public relations and communication professionals at all levels committed to advancing diversity, equity and inclusion, especially in the face of evolving challenges.

Don’t miss this opportunity to connect, learn and strategize with fellow professionals dedicated to building a more inclusive and equitable industry.

The DEI Drop-Ins series is free for Minnesota PRSA members and students and $10 for non-members. Register now!
