In an effort to ensure that spirit continues at ONA17 and all of our events, we wanted to make explicit our\u00a0goal of\u00a0holding safe, harassment-free meetings, trainings and social gatherings, as well as\u00a0specify the behavior we\u00a0deem inappropriate.<\/p>\n ONA leadership and staff are committed to providing a welcoming environment for all people.
