NEW ORLEANS – Beloved Community, in partnership with Made in New Orleans Foundation, is accepting applicants for the inaugural class of a program designed to help business owners create a hospitality industry in New Orleans that “works for all people – especially [those] who have been marginalized within it for centuries.”
The 20 restaurants and hospitality organizations selected to participate in the first year of this program will:
- Conduct an equity audit for their business
- Participate in nationally acclaimed workplace trainings, consultations and coaching
- Create a three-year equity work plan
- Be part of a supportive community of like-minded business leaders
Restaurants and other hospitality industry leaders in the Greater New Orleans area are invited to register for an informational session to be held virtually March 22, April 5 and April 19.
“We’re inspired by the work that MiNO is leading in the New Orleans hospitality industry and are excited to see the positive change that can occur in a region when industry leaders deepen their commitments to racial and economic equity,” shared Beloved Community’s Founder and CEO Rhonda Broussard.
