Leaders of Color Circle Application (Virtual Circle)
The Leaders of Color Circle application is now open!
The Leaders of Color Circle is designed specifically for and by Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) leaders working in the local nonprofit sector. Centered on BIPOC peer support and shared wisdom, the Circle aims to create a space where BIPOC leaders can ask and offer support around self-care strategies, nonprofit core competencies, and leadership skills while embracing their cultural heritage as an important asset for themselves and the sector.
