Abstract
With the latest data showing a steadily increasing level of diversity among the American public, many nonprofits are looking to stay abreast of these changes by increasing their own diversity—both in terms of staff and their boards. But doing so might not be as easy as you might think, and many nonprofits don't know where to start. Do you begin by hiring more diverse staff? Maybe recruit more diverse board members? Build a more diverse leadership pipeline? And in terms of diversity, what, exactly, does it mean?
