WHAT IS BRIDGING MICHIGAN?
Bridging Michigan<https://www.michiganhumanities.org/bridging-michigan/> is an event series and new grant opportunity that will spark in-depth conversation and action around the persistent social, economic, and cultural issues of systemic inequities that divide our communities.

Workshop leader Katena Cain will discuss questions to ask as you begin DEI work within your organization, potential hurdles to anticipate, and how to set goals and advance the work. Upon registration, attendees will receive a link to the event. Questions can be submitted on the registration form and during the Q&A portion of the online, webinar-style event.
