There are solid arguments in favour of ensuring that governance bodies in the public and nonprofit sectors reflect the rich diversity of our society. Thousands of public and nonprofit boards across Canada oversee and deliver a wide range of both volunteer and business activities in our daily lives.
To help you set up your own program, we have created a replication website, Diverse Cities onBoard.
This website includes a free toolkit and answers the following questions:
- How can I connect qualified members from under-represented communities to agencies, boards, commissions and nonprofits?
- What can I learn from Maytree’s DiverseCity onBoard program?
- Where can I find up-to-date resources and sample tools?
