This discussion will be focused on how Mission Driven Organizations can bring equity-based practices to their organization.
Please join Jessica Cunningham Akoto, CEO of KIPP Philadelphia Public Schools and Samantha Wilson Jones, Board Chair at KIPP Philadelphia Public Schools and Associate General Counsel at Spark Therapeutics where we’ll discuss "Bringing Equity Based Practices to Your Organization" with two people who fight for equity and to eradicate structures of racism in our society. Jessica and Samantha will share their experiences, the challenges they have faced, and learnings as they continue to lead their organization and improve from within. This year has brought the equity discussion to the forefront of the mainstream, but organizations have struggled to put discussion into action. This roundtable aims to provide actionable steps that you and your organization can use to improve your impact and work to bring equity to the forefront of your work.
The aim of this bi-monthly roundtable was developed to bring together foundations, philanthropists, and non-profit leaders in an informal forum so that they could share, learn, connect and provide feedback to one another in support of impact initiatives in our region. With all of us on the Zoom screen together this is a conversation, group participation is highly encouraged throughout.
