What weâre about
WHO WE ARE:
A local chapter of R-Ladies Global, R-Ladies Seattle exists to promote diversity in the R community, both in the US and worldwide. We are pro-actively inclusive of queer, trans, and all minority identities with additional sensitivity to intersectional identities (which many lead R-Ladies are). Our priority is to provide a safe community space for anyone identifying as a minority gender who is interested in R. As a founding principle, there is no cost or charge to participate in any of our R-Ladies communities around the world.

CODE OF CONDUCT: The leadership, mentoring & teaching roles within this Community are held exclusively by minority genders (majority gender speakers may be allowed/invited as one-off guests in exceptional circumstances at the leadership team's discretion). Due to unexpected demand, we have opened learning participation to all genders, dependent on initial and on-going vetting by the leadership team. However, the stated priority of the R-Ladies communities is the development & support specifically of those identifying as a minority gender, and we, therefore, reserve the right to guard this interest through whatever measures the leadership team deem appropriate. Anyone involved with R-Ladies Seattle is expected to fully respect each other, the mandate of this community, and the goodwill on which R-Ladies is founded, or face expulsion/a penalty of any form, at the discretion of the leadership team. Full community guidelines are found here: https://github.com/rladies/starter-kit/wiki...
