SUMMARY:Edit\, Undo\, Delete: A Crash Course in De-sanitizing Language in Nonprofits
DESCRIPTION:This session is offered by the Minnesota Council of Nonprofits.\n\nWednesday\, October 25th\, 11:0 AM – 1:00 PM ET\n\nRegistration Fees: $45 for Members\, $65 for Nonmembers.  Please log into the Member Portal to find the member discount code\, or email hilaria@dev.wvnpa.org. \nREGISTER NOW\nWords matter\, making the balance between upholding brand language and avoiding making watered down promises a challenge. Though all workplaces have them\, mission statements\, communication guidelines\, and company policies can clash with words that mean the most to many employees. Additionally\, concepts like coded language and loaded position descriptions continue to uphold social constructs such as racism\, ableism\, sexism\, and beyond. How do we stay true to our brand without perpetuating stereotypes and creating harm in the workplace? \nThis session will lead participants through an exploration of how we unintentionally reinforce social constructs with language\, and how to end the practice at work. Together we will examine the impact of sanitized language in nonprofits\, the ways in which it is most commonly used\, and where the most meaningful adjustments should be made. \nLearning outcomes: \n\nExplore the most common ways dominant cultures use language and control narratives.\nExamine the impact of sanitized language in the workplace\, and where it shows up.\nExtend the vocabulary commonly used at work\, and replace unnecessary or outdated language.\n\nEvent Details\nThis virtual event will take place on the Zoom platform. Your access link will be emailed to you the day before the event after 12 p.m. \nThis session will be recorded. The recording will be made available to registrants for 14 days after the live event. \nCaptioning is provided automatically through Zoom.
