About Us

We work to shift mindsets, practices, and systems within the social sector to increase race equity. We believe in a future where nonprofit and philanthropic organizations define, implement and advance race equity internally while advocating and centering it in their work externally.

OUR VISION
We envision a future where nonprofit and philanthropic organizations adopt a Race Equity Culture™ focused on proactive counteraction of social inequities. We must build a future where white dominant culture is dismantled within all social sector organizations, institutional and structural racism have been eliminated at all levels of nonprofit and philanthropic organizations, and race equity has been achieved within organizations, across the social sector, and in communities.

OUR BELIEFS
We focus on race equity explicitly, as research has demonstrated that doing so drives a measurable shift in equity across a range of intersectional identities (gender, sexuality, ability, et al.). The dominant culture which characterizes American society and, therefore, its nonprofit and philanthropic organizations is inextricably linked to policies and practices that elevate one race above others. This shows up in a myriad of different ways, but persistent racial outcomes gaps in health, income, education, and housing demonstrate structural inequity based on race.

By focusing explicitly on race equity, we believe that our efforts will help organizations create race equity cultures within their organizations, and help center race equity work as a core goal of social sector organization's missions.
