Diversity and inclusion are critically important for the sustainability of your organization and the nonprofit sector, but enacting them isn't easy. That's why BoardSource has created the Diversity in Action toolkit.

The downloadable PDF contains 19 tools designed to help your board increase its diversity and adopt the inclusive policies and practices that will create the culture needed to sustain your organization's commitment to diversity.

The tools focus on helping you:

• understand why diversity and inclusion are important
• build commitment to diversity and inclusion
• recruit new members with diversity in mind
• adopt inclusive practices and behaviors in board meetings
• measure and sustain your progress

You'll find case studies, sample policies and guidelines, and an action plan that will equip you for the challenging but doable task of ensuring that your board members represent diverse points of view.
