Our theme this year is symbolic of the diversity of our organization as we come together looking toward a brighter future. To that end, our session featured a panel of individuals from diverse backgrounds who shared with us unique aspects of their cultures. They highlighted family traditions, cultural customs, poems, special events and other aspects of their cultures. This was an informative and entertaining session.
