ELGL will host a Twitter conversation about this report and the findings on Friday, June 8 at 11:00 a.m. PDT. Follow along from the @ELGL50 account, and we’ll use the hashtag #paidfamilyleave. Submit your questions for the conversation to Kirsten Wyatt.
Note: ELGL has already received questions about replicating this research on a national scale, like last year’s North Carolina trial balloon for the Diversity Dashboard. We’ll be looking into this possibility in the coming months, possibly relying on sponsor support for research costs or crowdfunding the research similar to the Diversity Dashboard. Stay tuned for more information.
