Doubling Down on Racial Equity

Facing a so-called DEI backlash, some institutions have become fearful and risk averse. But many Association of Black Fundraising Executives (ABFE) members are instead doubling down on their commitment to racial equity during a critical moment in the movement’s history. This session will separate myths and facts, offer concrete examples of legal and programmatic strategies, and build movement solidarity and strength along the way. Staff, trustees, and donors committed to racial equity are encouraged to attend--experts and newbies alike.
