Willette Capers.

This interview originally aired on In the Moment on SDPB Radio.

Creator of an award-winning diversity advocate certification program, Willette Capers is committed to building a community where all people are accepted and understood.

She joins In the Moment to talk about her passion for encouraging people to find their authentic selves. She recalls times in her life where she had to put on an act rather than be herself, but now she is proud to be able to live life the way she wants to.

Willette plans to pursue further training in intercultural communication and conflict resolution to aid in her goals to build bridges and empower others.
