Why do our social change organizations – who work for racial, economic, gender, and environmental justice – reinforce income inequity in their pay scales?
How seriously can we take nonprofits, and their public solidarity statements, if they continue to under-compensate their most marginalized staff members?
What are the real, meaningful options for people who want to be part of organizations that practice equity where it matters: with compensation?
This virtual seminar series is for every nonprofit staff person, human resources professional, consultant, donor, or movement worker who believes that we need organizations to practice their stated values of equity through their compensation – in other words, to put their money where their values are.
Are you ready?
This four-part virtual seminar series builds your capacity to design an equitable compensation structure. The first seminar is a prerequisite for the all other seminars; the first three seminars are prerequisites for certification.
