At Colorful Connections, we place an emphasis on recognizing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) holidays, events, and observations throughout the year. We plan to share a curated list for your ease of reference each month.
As an employer and/or professional committed to DEI efforts, feel free to read through this list and share it with your networks! Kindly note that the following observances in January support cultural, religious, and social connotations.
