Diaspora Peoples’ Place is in the process of forming its first Advisory Council — a circle of cultural workers, organizers, artists, advocates, and community leaders who will help guide the growth of our programs and deepen our impact.

The Advisory Council will serve as a non-governing, non-fiduciary body that offers insight, thought partnership, and cultural grounding as DPP continues to build community-centered events, creative programs, and diaspora-led initiatives.

Purpose of the Council

The Advisory Council will support DPP by:

• Providing cultural, creative, and community insight

• Strengthening our diasporic storytelling and programming

• Offering strategic guidance on events, partnerships, and advocacy

• Connecting DPP with artists, organizers, and community organizations

• Helping us maintain alignment with our mission and values

The council does not hold legal or financial decision-making power. Its role is consultative and collaborative.

Who Will Serve

We are curating a diverse group of individuals whose work reflects:

• Diasporic creativity

• Community organizing

• Cultural stewardship

• Advocacy and justice

• Wellness and healing

• Entrepreneurship

• Art, music, and storytelling

Members will be invited based on their experience, community leadership, and shared commitment to our mission.

We look forward to introducing this inaugural group soon.
