DISC was actively involved in the creation of PRA Group’s employee resource groups (ERGs), such as Women in Business Advocates and Mental and Emotional Well-Being. The group also helped to define and launch PRA Talks, the education and community building global arm of our DEI program.
We look forward to continually enriching our corporate culture with the initiatives DISC will champion in 2023 and beyond.
