There is a growing recognition across the philanthropic sector that to advance diversity, equity, and inclusion, it must approach its work through a disability lens.

Join us throughout 2025 for a multi-part series on impact investing fundamentals. Each session will focus on different aspects of this practice, growing your knowledge and your network all year. All programs will be recorded and available to CMF members on demand; live participants will benefit from live Q&A with CMF Impact Investing Expert in Residence Jennifer Oertel and guest speakers, as well as peer discussion time.

We are also designing this convening to help grow your network so you can build connections with those who are similar in size, region and issue areas of focus, while also learning from the diversity of Michigan's family foundations.
