The coronavirus pandemic is disrupting virtually everything about the way we work, live, connect with one another and expect from our government, businesses, communities and each other. And it’s exposing the deep cracks and inequities in American society across race, class and gender. We can’t go back. So what will it take to create a fairer, healthier future of work and family? That’s what we explore on Crisis Conversations – Live from the Better Life Lab. Join us on Zoom to share stories, ask questions and make sense of what’s so rapidly unfolding, and imagine together a better, more equitable new normal.

Join the Better Life Lab team on Friday, Dec. 11 at 1 pm Eastern time, for a 30-minute interactive conversation reflecting on the past year of Crisis Conversations – the memorable stories, voices and experts we were able to shine a light on, the lessons learned from COVID-19 and the bold agenda for work-family justice and gender equity we need in 2021 and beyond.
