A Huge Shoutout to our very own Zina Frazier, Director of Intake and Access, for her featured article entitled "Flexible Work Arrangement Seen Through a Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging Lens" in the latest edition of the MIE Journal.

“Recently, I was blessed with the opportunity to gain immense insight into diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) and race equity initiatives (REI) as an inaugural National Legal Aid and Defender Association (NLADA) DEI-REI Fellow. The training offered through this fellowship was immeasurable. At the same time, my program, the Center for Arkansas Legal Services (CALS), was embarking upon the development of policies and implementation for staff flexible work arrangements…

I discovered through this process that by offering remote work arrangements to prospective team members, I could get a far more diverse applicant pool.”
