Demographics at CEP
As part of our commitment to openness and transparency, CEP shares data about the demographics of our staff and board.
Our Commitment to Transparency
CEP collects demographic information on our Board of Directors and Staff because we believe this information is important to monitor and reflect on. As part of our commitment to openness and transparency, CEP shares data publicly about the demographics of our staff and board on our website and on our Guidestar Profile.
Note: The demographics we collected allowed folks to check all that apply, so the values do not always add up to 100%
