Croton Diversity & Inclusion Committee to Hold Virtual Discussion

The two groups will take place Oct. 6 and 13.

CROTON-ON-HUDSON, NY — The village of Croton-on-Hudson’s Diversity and Inclusion Committee is forming a discussion group for residents.

Residents are invited to participate in two virtual, Zoom-based discussion sessions to gain a deeper understanding of the biases that permeate our experiences.

The hope is to self-reflect in a safe and supportive environment, to learn, and to grow in the hopes of creating a more equitable community and society.
