Unlocking Potential Through Workforce Inclusion

Kathy Tran, a member of the Virginia House of Delegates representing the commonwealth’s 42nd district, posted a blog on “Unlocking Potential Through Workforce Inclusion.” In the blog, Tran discusses the importance of inclusive workplace policies in making a difference in people’s lives, including her family, who immigrated from Vietnam when she was an infant. She talks about her efforts as a member of the Virginia House of Delegates to expand opportunities for underrepresented communities, including LGBTQ people, service members and their families, and people with disabilities. “It all circles back to ensuring that every person — whether an immigrant, working mother, veteran, or person with a disability — can reach their full potential and pursue their American dream, whatever form it might take,” said Tran. “An inclusive workforce is a strong workforce — and the key to growing vibrant communities and a robust economy.”
