Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

Through great adult volunteers and mentors, young people will learn about being trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, and courteous. These values, and others will enable the youth to be better citizens in their community, nation, and the world.

Through community organizations and partnerships, groups meet weekly to progress on these goals.

The South Florida Council has already secured over 200 partnerships, 3000 adult mentors, and over 20,000 youth members to strive towards the mission and goals.

Our annual advancement rate continues to be better than 70% of all members accomplishing their annual objectives.

Equity strategies

Last updated: 01/16/2021

GuideStar partnered with Equity in the Center - an organization that works to shift mindsets, practices, and systems to increase racial equity - to create this section. Learn more

Data
  • We review compensation data across the organization (and by staff levels) to identify disparities by race.
  • We ask team members to identify racial disparities in their programs and / or portfolios.
  • We disaggregate data by demographics, including race, in every policy and program measured.
  • We have long-term strategic plans and measurable goals for creating a culture such that one’s race identity has no influence on how they fare within the organization.
Policies and processes
  • We use a vetting process to identify vendors and partners that share our commitment to race equity.
  • We have a promotion process that anticipates and mitigates implicit and explicit biases about people of color serving in leadership positions.
  • We seek individuals from various race backgrounds for board and executive director/CEO positions within our organization.
  • We have community representation at the board level, either on the board itself or through a community advisory board.
  • We help senior leadership understand how to be inclusive leaders with learning approaches that emphasize reflection, iteration, and adaptability.
  • We measure and then disaggregate job satisfaction and retention data by race, function, level, and/or team.
  • We engage everyone, from the board to staff levels of the organization, in race equity work and ensure that individuals understand their roles in creating culture such that one’s race identity has no influence on how they fare within the organization.
