The AAO's Professional Development Committee Presents:
Safe Spaces for Diversity - Records Professionals with Disabilities, Chronic Illnesses, and the Neurodivergent, moderated by Sarah McDougall
The safe space virtual sessions are safe spaces set aside and reserved for archives workers and records managers from historically excluded groups in our profession to connect with one another in an informal, participant-driven environment. These sessions are open to students, emerging, and established professionals, as well as those working in volunteer activist roles.
Location: Zoom (Link will be sent when registered)
Recording: These sessions will not be recorded
Registration: $0 (AAO members, student members, and non-members)
Meetings are governed by the AAO's Code of Conduct as well as a guideline of confidentiality. It is essential that all participants agree to keep confidential the identities of individual participants and any names that may be mentioned during their time together, as well as any attributed specific comments. Agreement about this point is required.
