Diversity in PR: Discover, Connect, Unite
Effective Communication in Public Relations
FPRA respects all aspects of individual’s backgrounds and beliefs, and values not only differences of race, gender, age, creed, sexual orientation and ethnicity, but also unique talents, ideas and experiences. Diversity is critical in a complex business environment. The diversity and inclusion of our membership and leadership helps FPRA understand and satisfy the needs of our diverse members, industries, fields of interest and communities. In considering our effectiveness in developing and sustaining an inclusive organization, the Capital Chapter of the Florida Public Relations Association offers its members and fellow public relations practitioners information to help them to successfully communicate to diverse audiences.
The following sites are designed to help you discover, connect and unite with diverse populations. For more information, contact Erica Villanueva, Membership Diversity Chair at erica@ronsachs.com.
