Coalition Against Nonprofit Harassment and Discrimination (CANHAD)

Promoting justice in social justice

Reporting discrimination does not hurt a cause, but discrimination does.

Employees and volunteers at nonprofit institutions work long hours to promote justice, but more often than most people suspect, they face injustice at work—classism, racism, sexism, ableism, ageism, trans-aggression, and heterosexism. (To learn about sexism in anymal activism, see Oppressive Liberation.) Consequently, in July of 2017, a group (of anonymous anymal activists) created the Coalition Against Nonprofit Harassment and Discrimination (CANHAD).

On the CANHAD website, those who have experienced oppressions in a nonprofit can (and do!) anonymously tell the world about their experience. Information on this website not only helps survivors to heal—to know that they are not alone and have been heard—and also helps scholars, activists, and those running nonprofits to understand the depth and scope of the problem of harassment and discrimination in non-profit work.
