AFS-USA has contracted the services of Hines-Gaither Consulting, LLC (HGC). HGC is a diversity, equity, and inclusion firm with over 15 years of experience. They’ve worked with nationally recognizable corporations and organizations throughout the United States, and they’re staffed with content experts who are highly qualified in their fields of expertise. Through their assessment and guidance, we hope to foster a culture of belonging, equity, and inclusion more effectively throughout our organization. One of the most important steps in the assessment process will involve meeting with AFS-USA volunteers to conduct focus group interviews.
