What Every Nonprofit Leader Should Know About DEIB In 2025
This sparkling conversation addresses the enduring and evolving challenges of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB). Gordon Sims, Director of Development at the Diversity Center of Northeast Ohio, joined host Julia Patrick. Gordon begins with illuminating the organization’s nearly century-long history, rooted in combating hate and fostering inclusivity since its founding in 1927.
Reflecting on the origins of the Diversity Center, Gordon shares, “For 97 years, this organization has been fighting the forces of violence and exclusion.” He elaborates on how the mission has adapted to societal changes, emphasizing how DEIB practices today are about acceptance and creating workplaces that reflect diverse communities.
Amidst national debates surrounding DEIB, Gordon encourages reframing conversations: “Diversity doesn’t have to be about social justice—it’s about acceptance and embracing people for who they are.” With a focus on transparency and education, the center actively involves donors, hosts transformative events, and builds bridges across generations.
The conversation between these two will give you a hopeful outlook toward engaging unity and open communication as a pathway to overcoming DEIB challenges.
