TAMPA, FL – Shumaker Lawyer Brittainy Joyner has been accepted into the 2022 cohort of the Nonprofit Leadership Center’s Advancing Racial Equity on Nonprofit Boards (ARENB) Fellowship. The six-part ARENB program is designed to advance racial and ethnic diversity, equity, and inclusion on nonprofit boards throughout Tampa Bay, deepen the board governance knowledge and skills of professionals of color, and equip select nonprofits to genuinely welcome participating board fellows and ensure their organizations are ready and committed to fostering more inclusive and equitable boards and cultures.

” We are proud that Brittainy got accepted into Advancing Racial Equity on Nonprofit Board Fellowship,” shared Shumaker Partner and Diversity and Inclusion Committee Co-Chair Maria Del Carmen Ramos. At Shumaker, we understand the importance of promoting racial equity. We are happy to see our attorneys, like Brittainy, being committed to doing something about it.
