Collective Impact is providing a training workshop on Cultural Competence: Strengthening Workplace Sensitivity for nonprofit organizations at the conferences of the Pennsylvania Association of Nonprofit Organizations PANO and West Virginia Nonprofit Association WVNPA. The intent of this training workshop is to raise awareness of the importance of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) within the workplace, as well as with partners, clients, and other stakeholders. The interactive training pushes participants to face biases, prejudices, and assumptions in a proactive, positive, and fun manner. It encompass definitions and examples of harassment and discrimination and clarification of laws addressing these areas. It also provides interactive activities focusing on addressing inappropriate behavior, valuing differences, heightening cultural awareness, and creating a culture of diversity and respect in the workplace. Building cultural competence through strengthening workplace sensitivity is important for non-profits to be able to thrive in today’s complex and challenging world.

Collective Impact used our signature Community Design Innovations model to work with National Healthy Start Association in Washington, DC. The specific focus of this work was on preparing national Healthy Start grantees to assume a greater role in functioning as the “backbone organization” (as described in the Collective Impact model) in their respective communities across the nation. The project consisted of an environmental assessment of the current landscape and identification of strategies for organizational transformation. The mission of the National Healthy Start Association is to be the nation's voice in providing leadership and advocacy for health equity, services, and interventions that improve birth outcomes and family wellbeing.
