NAA Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Awareness Week

The third annual NAA Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DE&I) Awareness Week, sponsored by Home Depot Pro, is back with an additional day of learning to further develop your knowledge and help you become a DE&I advocate and policy leader in the workplace and your community. Building on last year’s lessons of supporting an intergenerational workforce, uncovering microaggressions, promoting inclusivity and building a foundation for diversity, equity and inclusion, you’ll learn about taming toxicity at work, properly supporting DE&I Leaders, expanding your market share through accessibility, an affiliate DE&I framework and fostering diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging with storytelling.   

Each day, you’ll be guided by experts through online sessions that tie into the other lessons of the week, while also learning communication strategies from other rental housing professionals.

Register today for one or all of the educational sessions to further develop your DE&I knowledge.

Date: October 16 – 20

Although the Americans with Disabilities Act was signed into law 33 years ago, the rental housing industry continues to struggle with moving beyond the legal compliance of checking the accessibility box.

We’ll also examine our implicit biases during the decision-making process from the top down and find ways to budget for change while mitigating risk and liabilities.
