Elective Session
Many schools endeavor to authentically and inclusively engage diverse alumni but lack the identity data needed to understand their demographics. In our ongoing efforts to integrate principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion into all of our engagement practices, Miss Porter's School launched an effort to gather detailed identity data via an alumnae census survey. We partnered with The Inclusion Firm to develop a thoughtful survey experience where our alumnae would feel comfortable, represented, and seen. Join us as we discuss our process and the outcomes of the census survey.
