NEW YORK — After successfully launching and building the foundation for the McLendon Minority Leadership Initiative (MLI) – a coach-driven initiative to provide minorities a jump-start to their careers through practical experiences, opportunities to build their network, and instilling the values of John McLendon – the McLendon Foundation will be honored with the inaugural Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Award at the Social Innovation Summit (SIS) this week.

The SIS Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Award celebrates the business professionals, partnerships and programs that are going beyond blanket diversity conversations to drive actionable outcomes and create lasting changes within communities.
