National WIC Association (NWA)

LPC partnered with Third Settlements to support an assessment of NWA’s equity work and values. LPC guided conversations to highlight existing values, discuss, and identify these values with the staff and board. We worked with the NWA staff to practice implementing these values in real-work situations via simulated scenarios. The team explored their values associated with who they do work for, and any unspoken or underlying values. These conversations helped to highlight and reveal how and where the team was already living and working with their established set of values, which led the group to confidently move forward with their equity goals. By re-establishing values and goals, NWA felt ready to create a meaningful partnership with Third Settlements and be part of adapting an Inclusive Leadership training for their team.
