National Initiative for the Elderly (NICE) appears to have a single government funder and its board, staff, and research teams do not reflect the community they serve in terms of diversity, inclusion, and equity. Mountain Mentors' leadership and participants do not seem to reflect their values of diversity, equity, and inclusion based on photos on their site. Volunteer Toronto has addressed recommendations from a University of Toronto Scarborough report to improve access and reduce barriers for newcomers volunteering.
