Diversity and Nonprofits
Diversity is a major issue within the nonprofit sector. Problems consist of the makeup of the leadership within organizations being predominantly white. Also, through a quantitative study I noticed that Latinos were underrepresented on the websites of 12 nonprofits, 6 being local organizations serving a large percentage of Latinos. Nonprofits are handling diversity well though when it comes to the absence of stereotypes, and good job on placing different races in different roles as employees, volunteers, leaders, and those being served. Overall, nonprofits seem to be dealing with the topic of diversity better than most organizations and groups out there.
