To support nonprofit leaders in being deliberate in their work to advance racial equity in their communities, ABFE has partnered with Allegany Franciscan Ministries to provide a two part cohort opportunity geared toward building and strengthening competencies on these issues. This program’s objectives are as follows (according to the two parts):
- Assist minority leaders from nonprofit organizations foster a deeper historical and structural understanding for what it means to advance racial equity as an organization, both operationally and programmatically
- Implement ABFE’s three core tools for advancing racial equity towards a few real time examples from participating organizations, to create a community of practice
Facilitated by ABFE: A Philanthropic Partnership for Black Communities, participating
leaders will receive focused racial equity trainings for equipping them with the shared
knowledge, skills, and tools needed to better understand and implement racially equitable practices. For the nature of this opportunity, priority will be given to Black applicants.
