“It’s very hard to escape and rebuild because it’s not just one part of your life. It’s everything.” Wise words from Lula Dembele, who speaks not only from personal experience but also from her work with other victim-survivors of #financialabuse. This is why responding to financial abuse is not as simple as teaching financial literacy and encouraging women to be more financially independent. It is far more complex to rewire your relationship with money after having it used to control you or to force you to choose between poverty or violence. And it’s why we need to shift the focus to changing the attitudes and behaviour of those who use money as weapon of coercive control. #designedtodisrupt

Why does reflective representation matter on local boards and commissions? It ensures that those making decisions on behalf of a community are representative of the population being served.

Since our founding in 2009, ProInspire has partnered with social change leaders and organizations to help create a world where everyone can thrive. We believe that when BIPOC leaders, who are closely connected to their communities, thrive in their workplaces, they foster thriving in their organizations and communities. Our new research, Thriving Leaders and Communities, focuses on accelerating racial equity by understanding the conditions needed for BIPOC leaders, organizations and communities to thrive. We are passionate about building a future where race and other aspects of identity do not determine the success of leaders or organizations. Thriving social justice organizations are key to creating racially equitable communities where everyone flourishes! Join us at our upcoming webinar to talk more about how we can all create conditions for thriving!

I once met a shy 14-year-old at our YMCA youth program. Today, she's leading initiatives to address food insecurity in her community. This transformation isn't rare. It's the power of youth engagement done right. Key ingredients: 1. Listen first, act second 2. Provide real responsibilities, not just tasks 3. Celebrate small wins consistently 4. Connect youth with diverse mentors 5. Create safe spaces for failure and growth Remember: Young people aren't just the leaders of tomorrow. They're the changemakers of today. Are we giving them the chance to shine? #YouthLeadership #CommunityEngagement
