D&I Message from 2/18/2021 (Click "Expand" to the right for details -->):
A message from Gina Lawson on Jefferson Lab's D&I Program Lead:
As some of you may know from the Weekly Briefs, Jefferson Lab's D&I Program Lead and members of Leadership are facilitating demographic focus group meetings that focus on groups at the lab that scored the lab lower during the 2020 D&I Survey. The goal of these meetings is to gain additional feedback from staff members belonging to these focus groups so that Leadership is aware of the issues, and solutions can be generated to alleviate these problems when able.
I was hoping since you all work closely with your groups/divisions, you would be able to help me in getting the word out to staff within your group, so those who will want to participate are aware of these meetings and are able to attend.
Also, there is a meeting scheduled specifically for Administrative Assistants to be held on March 2nd.
Here is the information for each of the remaining scheduled meetings:
Feb. 18: Veteran Status - Will Oren
Feb. 19: Role (Technicians) - Andrei Seryi
Feb. 23: Age/Generation - Amber Boehnlein
Feb. 25: Race - Lauren Hansen
Feb. 26: Gender - Jennifer Logan
Mar. 2: Role (Admin Assistant) - Stephen Smith
Mar. 10: Role (Staff Admin) - Stephen Smith
Mar. 16: Disability - Rusty Sprouse
Meeting links are included in the calendar event links for each event listed above.
Please let me know if you have any questions or have any concerns.
Thank you!
