The WDN Leaders
The Women’s Diversity Network (WDN) Leadership Team brings people together to break down barriers to inclusion, equity, and justice. Our leaders value, respect, and celebrate both our differences and our shared goals, working collectively to create a more connected and conscious Long Island.
WDN Leaders are passionate individuals already on their anti-racism journey who proudly support WDN’s mission. Through workshops, presentations, community discussions, and curated cultural experiences, they educate themselves and others on the issues that impact marginalized communities.
