The City of Everett recently held its Lunch and Learn for the month of July at Everett City Hall. This month’s program was titled “Care with Cultural Competency: Tips for Service Providers.” City employees were pleased to be joined by the Rev. Myreille Daniel and Sarah Joseph, MSW to learn and discuss strategies to enhance ways to provide support and stabilization services to diverse populations.

“Rev. Mimi” Daniel is a co-pastor of the North Shore Evangelical Missionary Church and the Founder & President of the Association of Women in Ministry International (AWMI). Joseph is a Haitian American activist and social worker and currently serves as a legal advocate for Catholic Charities Boston and is also a Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging consultant and the founder/director of Lekòl Kreyòl.

“This lunch and learn was especially helpful for our staff members whose work includes direct service and care to our residents and visitors,” said Mayor DeMaria. “I’d like to thank Reverend Myreille Danielle and Sarah Joseph for taking the time to educate and share this information with our employees.”

Lunch and Learn is a monthly program created and moderated by the City of Everett’s Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Director, Cathy Draine. It allows City of Everett employees to come together, share ideas and experiences and discuss new topics while enjoying lunch. The series is a part of the City’s commitment to engage, educate and elevate.
