Coalition Against Nonprofit Harassment and Discrimination (CANHAD)

Promoting justice in social justice
CANHAD was created with the understanding that 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 more about this phenomenon, see Oppressive Liberation.) That’s why a group (of anonymous animal rights activists) created the Coalition Against Nonprofit Harassment and Discrimination (CANHAD) in July of 2017.
On the CANHAD website, those who have experienced oppressions in a nonprofit can (anonymously) tell the world what happened. Information on this website helps scholars, activists, and nonprofits to understand the depth and scope of these problems, and it helps survivors to heal.
