Movement Talent (fiscal sponsor: Community Change)
Strengthening the Social Justice Ecosystem the Movement Talent Way
A field-building initiative that strengthens equitable hiring practices in under-resourced movement organizations by embedding structured processes, bias interruption, and capacity-building directly into active searches.
Grassroots social justice organizations often hire under pressure without HR infrastructure, allowing bias to shape outcomes - especially for mid- and senior-level positions. This project scales a proven accompaniment model that embeds structured processes, real-time coaching, and bias interruption into active searches. By strengthening internal capacity and documenting effective practices in movement contexts, we reduce bias, improve outcomes, and train staff to manage future hires independently - building equitable pathways for women and historically excluded leaders.
