Employee Resource Groups
Employee resource groups (ERGs) provide faculty and staff with the opportunity to share interests and experiences with each other, and the broader campus community. At Rollins, ERGs serve as a strategic pillar in supporting the institution’s mission by aiding in the recruitment and retention of diverse talent; fostering inclusion and belonging; facilitating networking, social connectedness, and community building; supporting employee development and capacity building; and helping to inform inclusive policies and practices. These groups also identify opportunities to directly support student groups. All ERGs are formed and operated by employees on a voluntary basis. For questions or information about our ERGs, email dmckinnon@rollins.edu.
Additional ERGs Coming Soon! We are pleased to work with our community to identify new ERGs that best serve our diverse community.
