The Catalogue for Philanthropy is hosting an upcoming BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) Executive Director cohort for nonprofit leaders to have peer-to-peer conversations on a variety of topics. The first meeting topics are pre-selected by the Catalogue team and from there, cohort members' interests will determine agenda and the time will be used to network, connect on topics, and to share resources. This cohort is designed for current BIPOC Executive Directors of locally-serving nonprofits, and a priority will be given to organizations with less than a $1.5M budget, although all are welcome to apply. Organizations must be headquartered in the DMV and do the majority of their work locally. This cohort will meet six times this spring, and will meet virtually via Zoom. The dates for the cohort can be found here. To sign up, visit https://survey.alchemer.com/s3/7165528/BIPOC-ED-Cohort-2023.
