A little over a year ago, a group of colleagues began convening regularly to learn with and from one another, and to support our collective vision and daily work to make progress toward race equity and collective liberation in partnership with leaders, organizations and networks. We came together with a shared vision to hold space for ourselves and other colleagues – whether they identify as consultants, capacity builders or practitioners with shared values – interested in engaging a community focused on learning, peer support and movement-building for transformation of the nonprofit and philanthropic sectors, and society.

Our first collaborative project was to define our shared values as practitioners, and to outline how those values connect to who we are, why we came together and how we show up in our work to support one another and organizations. The resulting infographic is the first in a series of resources we plan to cocreate and curate as part of our emerging work together: https://equityinthecenter.org/deep-equity-practitioners-building-capacity-for-liberation/

We will keep connecting, writing and sharing, and we invite others who identify as consultants, capacity builders or practitioners with shared values to join us on the learning journey. If you are interested in staying connected, please complete the form below and share some information about your work and learning goals.
