The North Carolina Career Development Association is guided by a strong commitment to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) across the constituencies we represent, including K-12, higher education, private practice, and industry. We recognize that intersectionality is at the heart of understanding the complex identities and experiences of individuals. We actively engage in conversations about power and privilege, aiming to dismantle structural inequalities within the career development field. By promoting equitable access to resources, advocating for inclusive policies, and fostering a sense of belonging among our members, we strive to create an environment that celebrates diversity, nurtures growth, and ensures that everyone has equal opportunities to thrive in their professional pursuits.

CATCH YOUR BREATH:
NCDA CONFERENCE 2023

By: Cindy Haeck, NCC, LCMHC, CCC, FCD-I

Chicago…the “Windy City!” What a landscape for learning at the 2023 Annual NCDA Conference. Writing two weeks later and I’m still trying to catch my breath. (Has nothing to do with the smokey skies due to Canadian wildfires.)

What are the great takeaways? Much of it boils down to the people! Sharing sacred space with others who are trying to wrap their heads around a rapidly changing landscape of the world of work…and serving others at every stage, age, and intersection of life.
