Thank you Nandar Win Kerr and Abayomi Ajaiyeoba (both with TRTCLE) for putting #TalkIntoAction! They discussed implicit bias, microaggressions, and how mindfulness practices help reduce implicit bias and promote lawyers' well-being.

New #DEI resolution from @TheIILP: Turn #TalkIntoAction in 2023 by talking for 1 hour (minimum) with someone you don’t know well and who has at least one diversity characteristic (gender, race/ethnicity, ability, etc.) that is different from yours. hubs.li/Q01wVJSc0

Just about 35% of cases outsourced by corporate clients go to diverse-owned firms. This important @TheIILP and @NAMWOLF study investigates the obstacles preventing a more equitable distribution of outsourced legal work. bit.ly/3xhfOoz

The legal profession is one of the least diverse professions in the United States. Sandra Yamate, CEO of @TheIILP, discusses how she plans to increase diversity and implement change. bit.ly/3SiFQzs
