What Lies Beneath: The State of NYC Nonprofit Board Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

The report is a result of a six month study conducted with the NYC Nonprofit Board Development Coalition, led by NYC Service, which assessed nonprofit board composition, board policies, as well as procedures.

BMP’s call to action focuses on systems change, organizational change, and individual support for women of color in the sector.
