There is a growing body of research which shows that effective DEI practices can promote a more positive organizational culture, which can influence the nonprofit’s ability to achieve impact on the people and communities they serve. The National Council of Nonprofits has compiled several resources and studies that document how effective DEI practices can help organizations cultivate staff belonging and motivation, improve management and governance practices, and spark innovation that can help nonprofits achieve their missions. Feedback practices have been shown to support better Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion outcomes, an essential area of assessment that we intend to further expand and develop in the future. You can find resources to help nonprofits improve their feedback practices here. This organization has not provided information regarding the diversity, equity and inclusion practices it is presently implementing.
As such, the organization has not earned a score on this metric. Charity Navigator believes nonprofit organizations implementing effective DEI policies and practices can enhance a nonprofit’s decision-making, staff motivation, innovation, and effectiveness. Our preliminary assessment of the nonprofit’s DEI practices was developed with the expertise and advice of dozens of leaders in the nonprofit and philanthropic sectors and is based on the Equity Strategies information collected through Candid’s Demographics profile. Charity Navigator has developed a plan to iterate and expand upon our preliminary DEI ratings and will be rolling it out gradually in order to provide charities ample time to incorporate, report, and potentially improve their equity practices. Resources to help nonprofits improve their DEI practices can be found here. The Form 990 is a document that nonprofit organizations file with the IRS annually.
