For decades much has been written about developing diverse boards in the nonprofit sector but to date there’s been slow progress to not only recruit, but retain board members. In fact, while people of color make up 60% of the state’s population, they represent less than a quarter of all board members in California nonprofits[1] In addition, we continue to hear nonprofit leaders are challenged with recruiting, developing and retaining effective board members. We believe that meaningful diversity and representation on boards will raise the level of leadership and provide valuable perspectives to further the goals of our community organizations.
About the Academy
The goal of the Board Leadership Academy is to both recruit and train the next generation of diverse leaders to serve on the boards of the East Bay community.
