A video series designed to bring awareness to issues surrounding historically underrepresented communities
Planning for a Diverse and Equitable Future is a video series created by The American College of Trust and Estate Counsel’s Diversity, Equity and Inclusivity Committee. ACTEC considers the historical, continuing, and devastating impact of systemic discrimination against racial, ethnic, gender, LGBTQ and other minority and marginalized groups in our society to be a humanitarian rather than a political issue.
This series strives to educate by discussing issues surrounding racism, sexism and discrimination in all its forms and by offering recommendations to combat inequality.
