The Alliance Conversation Series brings you cost-free, fast-paced collaborative opportunities that highlight successful donation and transplantation practices across the country. Through shared insight, multidisciplinary experts identify solutions to critical challenges affecting the community of practice and actively share them for open discussion and broader knowledge of effective practices.

Overview: Cultural competence and efforts to accomplish diversity, equity and inclusion can seem overwhelming and challenging to many.

Join our conversation as we uncover those key ingredients that can set us on the journey to embrace and leverage our cultural differences.
