1️⃣ *DDI Contrib team sprint day*
<#C76TQUQ2D|ddi-contrib-team> is a DD&I initiative aimed at increasing contribution from under-represented and marginalized individuals in the Drupal community. They’re working on new models of mentorship & support around contribution. And they would like to host a virtual sprint day!

They have a form if you’d like to sign up and pick some dates:

2️⃣ *DD&I Handbook*
We’re working on the first draft of our DD&I handbook that will outline the processes, initiatives, and contributor journey for DD&I:

This is meant to be a _living document_, but _where_ should it live for the most access to contributions?

:memo: Keep these sections in d.o documentation pages where people can suggest edits?

3️⃣ *DrupalGovCon DD&I efforts*
