Upcoming Events

Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging Monthly Workshop Series

Fourth Wednesdays 10:00 – 11:30 am February – April 2023

Growth of our movement requires that we expand our communities to reflect California’s diverse populations of older adults. We’ve been talking about this truth for several years, searching for steps we can take. This series will highlight the work four villages –  Pasadena, Ashby, San Francisco, and Westside Pacific –  are taking on to engage new audiences of potential village members and volunteers.

We’ll hear how they decided to connect with diverse communities, how they prepared themselves, and what they are doing. Village Movement California will develop a summary of programs, practices, and policies for distribution after the series ends.

We encourage you to invite your leaders, members, volunteers, and partners.

See the series flier here.
