Diversity Equity and Inclusion
October 29, 2020 - April 8, 2021
The turbulence and unrest of the 2020 election cycle will continue to impact our country, communities and nonprofit sector well into the future, with towering challenges in this time of COVID, racial equity at the fore, and political polarization. How should the nonprofit sector forge ahead with new state and federal legislative agendas, with newly retooled policy priorities, and with eyes on the prize of meeting their missions?
Join us for our final workshop in our 2020 Election Series as policy experts from the nonprofit and philanthropic communities analyze strategic goals, next steps, and lessons learned, even as the 2022 and 2024 election cycles already are underway.
