From BoardSource:
"Nonprofits are embedded in communities across our country to address long-standing inequalities that manifest through poverty, lack of affordable housing, poor access to health care, and unequal civil rights, just to name a few. Nonprofits also help us imagine and work towards thriving communities, which, by definition, requires inclusion.
After the racial reckoning following the murder of George Floyd, many organizations, particularly at the staff level, embarked on deep learning journeys to understand structural racism in our country. Many boards joined them. If you are holding this guide, we suspect that you are a member of one of those boards, or you are drawn to exploring how to help your board begin this journey. We developed this guide for you."
