Inclusion & Belonging

Based on CAEC’s established practice of welcoming all equally to one large table, particularly in its organizational memberships, we continue in our programming to look at the true benefits of inclusion, something we all aspire to achieve.

Join us for coffee and conversation 9:00 to 10:30 am March 31st at the LGBT Center of Greater Cleveland. We’ll highlight different ways to create a real sense of belonging and managing that openness in today’s complex, unpredictable world. Panelists will share basic goals and experiences, then we’ll open the floor to questions and dialogue for all.

Our host and moderator is Chyrel Oates, CWRU’s Director, Cuyahoga County Youth Work Institute. Panelists include Phyllis Harris, Executive Director, LGBT Center of Greater Cleveland, Mike Obertacz, Executive Director, Near West Theatre, Dr. Janet Keeler, Director, Community Development and Meg Matko, Community Development Specialist, Cuyahoga DD.
