Emily has expertise in many areas related to nonprofit management, constituent engagement, systems-change, and equity and weaves all this into a dynamic practice. She’s also a pleasure to work with and brings energy and humor to every situation. “
Rebecca Gorrell, Community Resource Center
"Emily is an established thought leader, skilled facilitator, and welcoming guide for an organization just starting or enhancing their commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Through her training for Community Shares, Emily built an accessible space, shared language, and cultural foundation for our board of directors to begin to formally institutionalize what has long been a shared set of values. Key to our work with Emily was building the shared understanding of the difference between diversity, inclusion, and equity; and focusing our attention on the important work of ensuring our diversity and inclusion efforts are rooted in equity. We have a mix of board leaders at different points in their DEI knowledge and understanding, and I heard from both board members early in their journey and those well-versed in DEI, that the training was just where we needed to start and a great foundation."
Erin Atwell, CEO, Community Shares of Colorado
