Engaging Stakeholders in Conversations about Hate

Love your place

What happens when a foundation makes a grant to a potential hate group? How do you have the important conversations that inform the development of values-aligned grantmaking policies? And how do you engage your board, your staff, and your community before there’s a problem? Join this session to hear from your peers about how and why their foundations created policies to prevent the funding of hate. Then engage in a roleplaying activity designed to put you in their shoes—how would you react, and what steps must a foundation take next?
