April 19, 2017

NEW HAVEN, Connecticut (April 19, 2017) – The law firm of Neubert, Pepe & Monteith, P.C. recently held mandatory diversity and sensitivity training for all firm employees. The training was conducted by the Anti-Defamation League’s (ADL) A World of Difference® Institute.

The ADL’s A World of Difference Institute is a leading provider of anti-bias education and, they state, recognizes that attitudes and beliefs affect actions, and that each of us can have an impact on others, and ultimately, on the world in which we live. The A World of Difference Institute’s programs and resources are designed to help participants: recognize bias and the harm it inflicts on individuals and society; build understanding of the value and benefits of diversity; improve intergroup relations; and confront racism, anti-Semitism and all other forms of bigotry.

ADL’s A World of Difference Institute trainers Michelle Pincince and Ellen Boynton engaged Neubert, Pepe & Monteith employees at each of the firm’s two training sessions with thoughtful and provoking questions, discussions, and exercises. Attendees were encouraged to share thoughts openly and, with sometimes light-hearted banter, learn more about one’s own thoughts and biases.

Neubert, Pepe & Monteith is committed to building an organization that is as diverse as the clients they serve and as the communities in which they work. The firm recognizes ADL’s position that each of us can have an impact on others and ultimately, on the world in which we live, and as such, Neubert, Pepe & Monteith continues to invest in its employees and its community, seeking a positive impact.
