What are Blind Spots? 

Blind spots, or labels, refer to unconscious biases that people have towards individuals or groups from different backgrounds or cultures. These labels can limit opportunities and lead to unequal treatment in various areas of life.

Join the I.D.E.A. (Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, Action) Committee on March 15 at the Bay East Event Center from 11am to 1pm to learn more! 

This is a free, in-person event at Bay East, and a pizza lunch will be provided by Angela McIntyre with Compass and Tracey Esling with Worldview Real Estate.
