Creating a Safe and Inclusive Conference Experience

At LERA, we’re committed to fostering a professional, respectful environment where every attendee feels safe and valued. Our Code of Conduct sets clear expectations for behavior, allowing all participants to focus on learning, networking, and collaboration.

Know the Expectations, and Where to Turn

Whether you're a first-time attendee or a returning member, understanding our standards is key to maintaining a strong, inclusive community. If you witness or experience behavior that violates the Code, we encourage you to speak up. You’ll also find practical guidance in our Guide to Safe and Inclusive Conference Engagement.

How to File a Code of Conduct Complaint

If you experience a situation that appears to violate LERA’s Code of Conduct:

  1. Write a detailed description of the incident.

  2. Identify which part of the Code you believe was violated.

  3. Email your report to the Diversity Chair, Lionel Sims Jr., at [email protected].
