Your opportunity to meet with your delegates and senators
Every year in January, Virginia bankers gather to meet with their delegates and senators.
ABA/VBA Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Summit
Co-hosted by the American Bankers Association
VBA and the American Bankers Association are joining together to launch their first-ever virtual Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Summit for bankers nationwide. This event is an important part of continuing a meaningful dialogue on fostering positive change in the industry. Sponsored by ABA associate member Ncontracts®, the value-packed program will help bankers cultivate a network of peers to share DEI leading practices and explore new opportunities and initiatives for their own institutions. The goal? To equip bankers all over the country with tools to mitigate systemic biases and foster greater inclusion for those disadvantaged by age, race, disability, sexual orientation, gender or other identity factors.
