The 成人头条 State Public Policy and Management Center wants to be engaged in the equity and inclusion conversations and solutions. We realize that the best place to start is with ourselves by expanding our understanding of racism, equity and inclusion. As we start this learning journey, we created a 鈥渨hat to read, watch, listen to鈥 resource list. Our staff is committed to utilizing these initial resources or others that we identify, to engage in difficult conversations and make change moving forward. We encourage everyone to join us on our journey and utilize a wide variety of learning resources to help your organization, community and residents thrive.
