There is a growing body of research which shows that effective DEI practices can promote a more positive organizational culture, which can influence the nonprofit’s ability to achieve impact on the people and communities they serve. The National Council of Nonprofits has compiled several resources and studies that document how effective DEI practices can help organizations cultivate staff belonging and motivation, improve management and governance practices, and spark innovation that can help nonprofits achieve their missions. Feedback practices have been shown to support better Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion outcomes, an essential area of assessment that we intend to further expand and develop in the future.
