As change agents within philanthropy, we are stretching to become our best selves, rise to the moment, and progress toward racial equity.
This sixth and final session of the Foundations of Racial Equity series explores Equity in the Center's “Awake to Woke to Work: Building a Race Equity Culture” publication and framework.
