Implications of federal attacks on DEI and opportunities to keep the work going: An MBA legal community discussion

Join the Massachusetts Bar Association on Thursday, March 20, from 6-7:30 p.m., at the MBA headquarters (20 West Street, Boston) for an open legal community discussion on potential implications of the recent federal attacks on diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI). The discussion will cover various topics, including the scope of the executive orders, what they cover and what they don't, and what is legal and what is not in our DEI work moving forward.

The program will assess current developments at the federal level, what to expect next locally, and how to continue the progress that many have worked so hard to achieve.

This informative event is FREE for all attendees.
