The Meaning and Impact of Board and Staff Diversity in the Philanthropic Field
Joint Affinity Groups, May 2002
"The Meaning and Impact of Board and Staff Diversity in the Philanthropic
Field" shows that the philanthropy field has made some progress in
becoming more diverse, but still faces many important challenges in
addressing diversity issues if grantmakers are to respond effectively to
the needs of the communities they serve. The report was prepared for the
Joint Affinity Groups (JAG), a national coalition of grantmaker
associations, and is the result of a multi-stage research project that
combined surveys, interviews and focus groups to reach more than 600
grantmakers nationwide.
