Hello All,



As some of you may already know from conversations with Noel or myself, we are thrilled to announce the launch of our new Accessibility Employee Resource Group (ERG).

This initiative is close to our hearts, and we are committed to fostering an inclusive environment that supports accessibility for everyone.



Our Accessibility ERG is dedicated to promoting awareness, providing support, and advocating for the needs and rights of employees with disabilities.

We believe that by working together, we can create a workplace that celebrates diversity and ensures equal opportunities for all.



Attached is the flyer with more details about our ERG, its mission, objectives, and how you can get involved. We are reaching out to ask for your support in spreading the word.

Please share this flyer not only with your respective boards but also with your membership and directorates.

Your assistance in distributing this information will be invaluable in ensuring that our message reaches as far and wide as possible.



We are moving forward with great enthusiasm and are open to any suggestions, questions, or discussions on how we can collectively make BNL a more accessible and inclusive place for everyone.

If you are interested in learning more, becoming a member, or if you have any ideas you'd like to share, please don't hesitate to contact me directly.
