Where: La Crosse Area Chamber of Commerce

Lyle & Norma Anderson Education Center Room

601 7th St N

La Crosse, WI 54601

Time: 11:30am – 1pm

Many people in the Greater La Crosse Area practice religious faiths other than Christianity.  Come learn about how to make your workplace welcoming and accommodating to the needs of diverse religious groups.

 Dr. Ahmed El-Afandi and Rabbi Simcha Prombaum will speak from Muslim and Jewish perspectives about how stereotypes can negatively impact religious minority employees, employee concerns about whether to disclose their faith in the workplace, and how assumptions about holidays and other workplace norms can be reconsidered to be more welcoming to a variety of religions.
