 Hello!
People have been asking - what exactly is Diversity Minnesota? Briefly - Diversity Minnesota is a Web and a hub. We reach out to government and community organizations helping them find jobs for their members. We work with employers to find diverse candidates. We list resources available to new and enlightened Minnesotans. We establish a network of advanced community and diversity leaders. We are always on the lookout to add to our network. If you have recommendations of organizations or leaders we should be working with, please email me at ColetteB@DiversityMinnesota.com. Lets work together to keep the Diversity Minnesota network growth momentum going.
Warmest Regards,
Colette
