Nonprofit Village in partnership with Equity Through Action presents a program to help nonprofit organizations learn the key concepts related to race, equity and inclusion and align the learnings to the work of the organization.
Conscious Conversations: A Race Equity Self-Accountability journey is a two-part series workshop exploring key racial equity concepts to assist participants to develop and/or enhance their understanding of race and racism as constructs and how these constructs are used as structural and societal barriers. During the virtual workshops, participants will engage in facilitated conversations, interactive activities aimed to take concepts into understanding, and conclude with the opportunity to design their personal plan to continue their racial equity journey. Through four weeks of self-directed resource review and defined activities the nonprofit will have the opportunity align their learnings with goals for the organization. This workshop is designed for nonprofit leadership staff and board members. It is recommended that a board and staff member participate together.
