Data shows that the racial composition of Memphis-area nonprofit boards is inversely proportional to our region's demographics, with 65% of board members being white, 31% Black, and 4% Latinx or Asian. Many organizations want to diversify their boards but are not sure how to go about it systematically and effectively.
