Organizations in all industries have embraced the value of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in their operations – but how can eldercare organizations go beyond trainings and workshops to create truly inclusive cultures?

We asked that question to a variety of leaders at the Pioneer Network conference this past July. Join an all-star team of voices from across the eldercare spectrum for a challenging, honest, and open conversation about the barriers that people of color, LGTBQ folks, and others still face when taking a seat at the table – and how we can work to make our communities welcome to all.

You’ll hear from:

• Marvell Adams, Jr., founder and CEO of W Lawson and Green House Project board member
• Deke Cateau, CEO of A.G. Rhodes
• Ykeytta Spriggs, HR professional, Green House intern, and rising eldercare leader
• Sherrill Wayland, director of special initiatives at SAGE and program lead for the Long-Term Care Equality Index (LEI)
• Dan Stewart, associate director of the Aging Equality Project at the Human Rights Campaign Foundation and LEI program co-lead
