Description

Background

Camber is a national nonprofit organization whose mission is to create and sustain inclusive, equitable, and diverse workplaces in the Outdoor Recreation Economy. We support and equip 200+ companies and nonprofit organizations in the $669 Billion Outdoor Recreation Economy (the active-outdoors industries) in building organizational systems, practices, and policies to support inclusive, equitable, and diverse workplaces. In an industry that is 81% white, many Camber Partners lack the critical mass of diverse employees to reflect and respond to the needs and preferences of an increasingly diverse consumer base of outdoor enthusiasts. To increase the funnel of diverse talent in the Outdoor Recreation Economy in the workplaces of Camber Partners, Camber has developed the "Leaders from The Future of Work Virtual Internship Program presented by Winnebago Industries,” an innovative, diversity, equity, and inclusive (DEI)-focused internship program.
