DEIJ Practices in Nonprofits — New Survey Results to be Revealed at SHRM23

Session Sponsor: 
2023 Annual

During this session, Nonprofit HR will release brand new data from its 2023 Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Justices Practices Survey! For the past four years, Nonprofit HR has surveyed social impact organizations across North America about their diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice practices. More than three years after the murder of George Floyd, the results from the survey highlight how employers are faring in their efforts, primary drivers for deepening their focus on this core talent management area, which organizations are championing inclusion, valuable benchmarking trends and more!

Be among the first to gain insights that will help your leadership prioritize and integrate DEIJ efforts into your organization's strategy.

During this session, we will focus on the following:

• How many and what type of organizations have formal DEIJ statements, strategies, and dedicated budgets

• What organizations are reporting as their greatest DEIJ challenges

• Tips for moving beyond diversity statements to fostering cultures of inclusion and belonging

• What organizations shared about DEIJ fatigue and its impact on the organizational journey
