Cultivating Community
Employee resource groups, ERGs, are a way for members of CIVIC to connect over a shared identity, cause and/or interest. They aim to provide a safe space for open and honest conversations as well as a forum to develop related solutions and initiatives for the larger company.
Additionally, if you have an idea for another group, we’d love to hear about it!
