"Although there is a tendency to assume that diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives serve primarily Black and brown people, the reality is that it includes many more populations. And everyone can benefit when we uplift multiple populations to help create pathways to economic opportunity." Ares Management Corporation Charitable Foundation president Michelle Armstrong makes an impassioned plea for employers leveraging the skills of populations often overlooked, including people who are disabled, older adults, and the justice-impacted. Armstrong shares how Ares' philanthropic efforts are helping bring this idea to the forefront together with WorkingNation in our Emmy-award winning "Breaking Barriers" video series.
