As an alternative to our regularly scheduled November Lunch & Learn, we invited members and the public to join the LWV of Wisconsin's Statewide Implicit Bias Training on November 17. 

On November 21, our League is hosting a local conversation to explore what implicit bias is, where we see implicit bias in the La Crosse League, and how we as individuals and as an organization can be more welcoming to and build relationships with others. Changing our implicit bias requires self-reflection, time, intention, and training.

UWL Professor Laurie Cooper-Stoll will facilitate a conversation exploring implicit and explicit bias in the Coulee Region.  All are welcome to submit questions in advance at lwvlawi@gmail.com. Together we will discuss how our attitudes and biases affect our actions.

Register on this page (upper right side) for the Nov 21 Lean-In conversation.

In 2020 the LWVUS elevated diversity, equity, and inclusion as a core institutional value, on par with the League’s nonpartisanship policy. Diversity, equity, and inclusion are core principles critical to our current efforts to empower voters and defend democracy. This conversation is an important step in the LWV La Crosse Area DEI initiative.
