Program Wide Discussion on DEI John Towns (10 mins)
recommend a meeting in the next couple weeks - get staff input
Open to everyone on the program
Who leads? - Working Group leading? - probably in parallel - we might not have a charter by then
this would lead to creating the Standing Committee
they do have a document that outlines what a committee charter should include - Shawn will send to Shannon
Stephen could take charge since he plans to lead the effort
send recommendations to Stephen for representatives for each team
Suggestion - explain and discuss with team members as a thing going on but continue to do anything they were already doing to contribute to the process
Should we still use term DEI - Democratization? - Diversity and Belonging?
bring up on agenda for wider discussion
