Description

How does your staff represent the communities you serve or hope to serve? In what ways does your internal culture support and empower minoritized staff members? Join us for our May 2021 Nonprofit Leadership Council- Your Community, Your Leadership: Cultural Proficiency & Staying Relevant to the Communities You Serve as we discuss the importance of cultural proficiency and relevance in nonprofit work, in both the internal and external ways we pursue our organizational missions.
