Pluspunten
The mission of this organization is great and there are SOME staff that do genuinely care for the work and the young people that are served.
Minpunten
The organization is being run by an Executive team who is out of touch with the current needs to implement adaptive, diverse, just and inclusive work; as well as practices of tokenism that are discrete. The executive team has helped to foster a feeling of uncomfortability, hostility, fire-culture and extreme nepotism when it comes to the Board of Directors. There is little to no support for POC except for reactive policies that are not explored and understood by the Executive team before they are accepted. in this establishment and there is no urgency to create a welcoming environment that is free from prejudice and discrimination, even among the youth interns that are served. Ask others who have been involved in the organization before you apply to this organization. This culture is not conducive to understanding the need for suppporting staff through strenuous times. Especially staff that identify as BIPOC; there is also a need for more relational understanding of the LGBTQ+ community among majority of staff. Many conflicting priorites within the Executive team has led to near unmanageable workloads; and uncomfortability in expressing suggestions/ideas for organizational sustainability and growth.
