Minorities working at predominantly white institutions (PWI's) of higher education face many challenges both professionally and personally. One critical challenge for minorities is feeling a sense of belonging (SoB) in their organization. Workplace diversity, equity, and inclusion have become crucial for many organizations as they look for ways to help their minority staff feel valued and included. One strategy that organizations are using to promote inclusion and diversity is Employee Resource Groups or ERG's. ERG's are voluntary groups formed around shared identities and/or common interests. The purpose of this action-research study was to determine if ERG membership had a significant impact on the (SoB) felt by minority staff working at a PWI and to provide actionable steps to improve the (SoB) for minority staff at PWI's. In this qualitative study the researcher interviewed six members of ERG's at a large PWI in the Midwest. The participants varied, in race, gender, age, and role at the University. Three major themes emerged which were identity, belonging, and University support. The findings revealed that ERG membership does have a significant impact on the (SoB) for minority staff. The recommended action steps focus on the theme of University support in the forms of funding, access to information, acknowledgment of the voluntary efforts of staff, and informing new and existing staff of the existence of ERG's.
