Race & Recreation: A Positively Disruptive Conversation w/ Dr. Autumn Saxton-Ross - VP of Education & Chief Equity Officer at National Recreation and Park Association| The DEI Disruptors
Description
Join us as we have a conversation about the intersection of race and recreation with National Recreation and Park Association's VP of Education & Chief Equity Officer, Dr. Autumn Saxton-Ross. Gain insights into parks and recreation diversity equity and inclusion efforts!
Autumn Saxton-Ross, PhD, developed a love of the outdoors first through her grandmother’s yard and then exploring city parks with her family in her hometown of Kansas City, Missouri. Now a resident of Washington DC and mom of two, she is the VP for Education & Chief Equity Officer at the National Recreation and Parks Association (NRPA). She started her career as an elementary school Health and PE teacher in DC Public Schools and after receiving graduate degrees in Health Education and Sociology, has worked in various positions that placed her at the intersections of health, equity and parks. Most recently, she served as the Mid- Atlantic Regional Director and Equity, Inclusion and Diversity Lead for NatureBridge, and prior to that she held positions in non-profits, health and recreation departments. Autumn is a connector- actively seeking out ways to build bridges between seemingly disparate people, opportunities and ideas. And if you really want to see a sparkle in her eye, start a conversation on all things Marvel, Octavia Butler or Star Trek: The Next Generation.
