You’re right, Andrew – we have work to do in this area. We’ll be sharing more on this in our upcoming 2020 Annual Report and are taking intentional steps in our hiring process (we have one open position at the moment) to address this. There is some additional information on our team’s historical diversity here as well: https://www.rivernetwork.org/equity-diversity-and-inclusion-river-networks-journey/

However, when I look at your staff page,
I do not see “any” African Americans in any of your leadership positions and only one on your board.

What gives?

Thank you.

Andrew
