Overview:

Trailhead Institute is requesting proposals to support us in taking initial steps toward a stronger racial justice framework – one in which we work to create conditions in which everyone can be healthy and thrive – across systems and structures, and integrate the work we are doing to become a “regenerative organization” into a robust action plan that outlines how we can better leverage our institutional power to affect systems change. 

Trailhead Institute staff and board are committed to taking the steps necessary to make these changes. To date, the Trailhead board has agreed to the organizational drivers (collaboration, capacity and justice) as well as agreed that the board needs to look deeper into justice, equity, diversity and inclusion as part of board practice. Trailhead staff have held regular conversations about white supremacy work culture and regeneration and how they show up in ourselves and our work. The commitment to make changes includes dedicating time, resources, and energy into the sometimes difficult steps and decisions toward a stronger racial justice framework.

Services Required: 

• Design or inform a sustainable governance structure or strategy for Trailhead to ensure the compensated engagement of communities, partners and those most impacted by systemic racism and oppression. 
• Support Trailhead staff to engage internal and external stakeholders, communities and partners to identify best practices, decision making and engagement for designing a governance structure. 
• Determine a process for deciding who makes up the new governance structure; how decisions are made; terms of participation; etc. 
• Advise on strategies to ensure that this works stays front and center in Trailhead’s ongoing evaluation and strategies to track action items, keep them updated and integrate them into our next strategic plan. 
• Mutually agreed upon plan for regular and consistent communication.
