Collaboration Projects Home
The following are some of the organizations that we collaborate with to advance our vision and mission. Please note that collaboration generally means that we will try to use DC3 to highlight and help to publicize the organizations' programs or events that align with the Diversity Council's mission and vision. It does not imply we endorse or support everything that the organizations engage in. If you have any questions, please contact us at info@diversitycouncil.org .

Greater Rochester Non-Profit Partners
The purpose for the existence of this group is two-fold:
1. To promote collaboration between group members and the organizations which they represent.
2. To serve as a peer support group for member agency directors.The organizational structure to support this group is (as simply as possible) to allow for members to share information, engaged conversation and fellowship on a monthly basis. It is suggested that (at least to start) an acceptable monthly meeting time be established, a facilitator be elected to conduct the meetings and act in a communication capacity, and to set a rotating schedule of members hosting the monthly meetings at their place of business or other location of their choosing. Further, it is suggested (at least initially) to keep meeting to no longer than 75 minutes. Finally, it is suggested that the meetings be formatted in a way to focus on the group’s two-fold purpose.
