DIVERSITY, EQUITY, & INCLUSION (DEI) TRAINING
Does your organization need the added bandwidth to both train and sustain Diversity, Equity and Inclusion efforts? If so, let Partners in Equity aid you in developing processes to enhance workforce and other relevant policy, develop benchmarks and follow with customized training for your staff and board.
We believe there are tremendous assets that can be harnessed and shared to bring you value, as we facilitate shared learning and broker the needed expertise. True health equity equals the absence of disparities and we can only achieve this collectively.
PIE can also assist in updating strategic plans and enhancing buisness processes to strengthen capacity for sustaining this work.
Reach out to us for assistance on a short-term investment that will produce a long-term impact for you and your various stakeholders.

Equity Ambassadors program
Join us in equipping a new generation of leaders to serve as ambassadors, present and future, who will fight for justice and equity for those in our nation who continue to suffer the negative impacts of inequity.
Equipping others so that work takes place at the grass-roots level (place-based) is the most transformative approach to accelerate efforts resulting in equity and justice.
We create opportunities and engage the voice of broader community to host learning opportunities that train organizations to activate solutions to improve outcomes.
FOUNDER & DIRECTOR
- In 2022, Janice Sherman, PIE founder, was named among Goldman Sachs' initiative to support One Million Black Women Nonprofit Leaders Transforming Communities and awarded 1 of 50 impact award grants among 800 competing applicants.
- Ms. Sherman organized PIE in 2020 as a response to a deeply felt passion to partner with community health centers and related organizations to support their efforts for leveraging their impact. By using their own actionable data to mitigate broad and systemic inequities, she feels that they are a significant part of the solution; and need support for capacity building in getting there.
- At its origins, she along with others from various state primary care associations, led efforts to stand up a national Race and Equity Workgroup providing a road map for those having a desire to respond to calls-to-action. She feels collective action is the way forward and not individual blaming.
- Ms. Sherman later partnered to establish the Dr. Robert Smith Center for Health Equity and Social Justice. She designed and launched an initiative to train ambassadors to develop solutions in attaining equity in the communities of color. This initiative, funded in part by the W.K Kellogg Foundation, supports work to address broad structural inequities.
