Equity, Diversity, & Inclusion

The Educational and Cultural Events Subcommittee seeks to raise awareness and understanding about different cultures, backgrounds, and other factors which make us unique, so that the firm may better value and engage with each employee and with each person who works for our clients or whom we encounter in our work. This subcommittee focuses its efforts on bringing issues and challenges impacting different communities to light, and in turn helping our people learn how to best support and empower those communities, as well as one another.
