About this event
Dr. Ninochka McTaggart will explain what inclusive language is and the key concepts related to this term. Additionally, there will be a walkthrough of the LWVC People First Language Guide to demonstrate how inclusive language guides can be used to implement inclusive language practices. This guide aims to standardize the terminology used by staff, volunteers, and local Leagues in both advocacy and educational work. The webinar will conclude with an analysis of why inclusive language matters and how it can promote a more positive and cohesive organizational culture. The webinar is designed to assist League volunteers and staff in using people-first language and avoiding terminology with negative connotations.
The beginning of this webinar will be recorded, but we will stop recording during the open discussion session so attendees can feel more comfortable sharing. Register at link;
