Hi everyone,</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
I hope that you and your community are taking the space and care that you need during these past few challenging and traumatizing weeks. This coming week our Diversity Committee meeting is planned as a working group session, but we can pause in the beginning
to provide space for anyone who would like to discuss recent violence and trauma, especially for Black and Asian American communities, and how we can support each other and our research communities through these events.</div>

Our April meeting will be dedicated to working groups. You may want to glance over prior notes for your WG to decide how best to use your time. As needed, we'll continue past the hour to share ideas and gather feedback from the broader group.</div>
