The Dallas Truth, Racial Healing & Transformation Racial Equity NOW Cohort for Non-Profits is a 10-month deep learning experience for organizations ready to grow in their racial equity journey. Racial Equity NOW is designed to provide organizations with racial equity training, coaching, case study presentations, policy review and development, outcomes development and a community-based history tour.
The Racial Equity NOW Cohort offers three key outcomes for participating organizations. Participants will:
Increase their knowledge of race, racism, racial healing, racial equity and racial justice, and improve their leadership capacity on racial equity policies and practices within their organization and for their communities;
Draft a racial equity organizational assessment, a racial equity theory of change, and a racial equity policy statement;
Create a racial equity project/program and receive up to $10,000 in grant funding to implement their organizational racial equity strategy plans.
Racial Equity NOW will provide learning opportunities for personnel at all levels of the organization with a requirement that participants include a Board member, Executive Director/President/CEO, and a direct service-level staff member.
A cohort group of 14-16 nonprofits will be selected through an equitable application and interview process, and will be asked to make a 10-month commitment to this program. Participants will attend a series of workshops, as well as be provided with one-on-one racial equity coaching. All training and coaching expenses will be provided by Dallas TRHT.
Completed applications must be submitted on or before Tuesday, January 4, 2022 at 5:00 p.m. for consideration. Visit racialequitynowtx.org to learn more!
