Goal 2: Employers improve how they hire, retain, and promote diverse talent |
Current State

Challenges
- Many standard policies and practices around hiring, retention, and promotion can unintentionally prevent employers from accessing untapped sources of talent.
- Existing Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Accessibility (DEIA) efforts available in the region and across the state do not provide employers with direct support around setting employer-specific goals for changing policies and practices, developing action and implementation plans to, and tracking real-time progress and impact.
