Where Do We Go From Here?
Fr. Justin Mathews, Executive Director of Reconciliation Services, recently had the great honor of accepting an Ace Award from the Kansas City Chamber of Commerce during their virtual “POWER of Diversity 2020” event.
The event, streamed live on YouTube, truly captured KC’s heart for diversity and offered actionable advice for leaders in the business community who are looking for ways to operationalize their inclusion and equity priorities.
Watching the entire broadcast would be two hours well-spent, but because we know you’re busy, we want to share a few highlights (click the links below to jump directly to that part of the video):
