Community Conversations
Miami Regionals Office of Diversity and Multicultural Services is a hub for candid, critical conversations, and promoting an inclusive environment where difference is the rule rather than the exception.
Our local community leaders recenly discussed the “new normal” brought on by COVID-19; the powerful protests precipitated by the deaths of Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery and George Floyd; the long-term effects on the community and possible solutions as we move forward.
This event was co-sponsored by the YWCA Hamilton.
