What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Prevent Cancer | HPV Campaign | LGBT+ Population
Our goal for this project is to reduce informational and institutional barriers that increase the risk of developing an
HPV-related cancer for LGBTQ+ individuals in the Lehigh Valley. We will achieve this through an HPV vaccine
promotion campaign through our on-site youth program and community-based outreach, as well as an anal/cervical
Pap test promotion campaign for LGBTQ+ adults. As our organization seeks to be more forward and proactive in
addressing the sexual health of people who are receptive partners, addressing HPV-related cancer prevention among
LGBTQ+ young people and adults allows us to expand our resources and increase awareness regarding health
disparities faced by LGBTQ+ individuals in the Lehigh Valley community and among Lehigh Valley medical
professionals.

- 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 analyze disaggregated data and root causes of race disparities that impact the organization's programs, portfolios, and the populations served.
- We disaggregate data to adjust programming goals to keep pace with changing needs of the communities we support.
- We employ non-traditional ways of gathering feedback on programs and trainings, which may include interviews, roundtables, and external reviews with/by community stakeholders.
- 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.
- 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.
