Happy new year from all of us at W! While 2020 was not the festive twentieth anniversary year we had planned, we rose to its unexpected challenges at work, joined with Black Lives Matter and others to examine our community values, and feel ready to take on 2021 with renewed energy and purpose! Thank you for being a part of our community. Together, we can make 2021 a better year for everyone! Read more about what we've been up to this year at the link below.
