Work-Family Justice for LGBTQ+ Individuals: Identifying and Overcoming Barriers to Inclusivity in Practice and Research
This WFRN Virtual Conference Series plenary session will focus on identifying barriers to achieving work-family justice for LGBTQ+ individuals and discussing pathways and strategies on how we may work toward achieving greater inclusivity both in practice (i.e., in workplaces) as well as in our research. Expert panelists will share their initial thoughts on this topic, and then engage in a moderated panel discussion. Following the panel discussion, the conversation will open to questions and comments from event participants. This event is free and open to the public. Registration is required.
