How can employees get involved in inclusion and belonging at NFP?
Engage with Business Resource Groups
Business Resource Groups (BRGs) and Regional Inclusion & Belonging Councils are central to how we live our values at NFP. These employee-led communities bring colleagues together across shared identities, lived experiences, interests, and allyship, creating spaces where connection, collaboration, learning, and belonging can thrive.
Through BRGs and Councils, employees can:
- Build community and peer networks
- Develop leadership and career skills
- Engage in mentoring and allyship
- Support community outreach and volunteerism
- Participate in meaningful dialogue and education
To make it easier to connect and get involved, the Inclusion & Belonging team launched CommunityCliQ, our new hub for everything BRG-related. CommunityCliQ makes it simple to find BRG events, announcements, and posts; and to connect, collaborate, and engage with colleagues across NFP in meaningful ways.
If you’re already a BRG member through Viva Engage, you should have received instructions to get started on CommunityCliQ. Need help? The Inclusion & Belonging team is just an email away at inclusion_belonging@nfp.com.
Not a BRG member yet but interested in joining? Complete this form, and you’ll receive step-by-step instructions to create your profile and start engaging on CommunityCliQ. You can also join any of the 9 BRG’s on Viva Engage to start connecting right away.

Member activities include:

With staggered two-year terms for each member, we ensure we are welcoming new voices every year. The annual application opens in September. In addition to our companywide Inclusion & Belonging Advisory Board, we have regional and platform committees that drive local efforts and they welcome new members throughout the year.
