Corporate Equity and Inclusion Roundtable Pittsburgh

About us

CEIR came about as a lot of movements do, in response to a negative situation. The Pittsburgh region in 2010 was listed as 40th out of 40 regions in the nation with regard to the conditions of the black working poor and black children. This was unacceptable, and we met with Rich Fitzgerald when he was running for office as CEO (Chief Executive Officer) for Allegheny County. We asked him if he would help us facilitate and host this Corporate Equity & Inclusion Roundtable. He agreed to do so, and once he won the election he recommitted. Now we have both Mayor Peduto and County Chief Executive Fitzgerald who have been with us in our summits. We have three things to ask of anyone hiring or precuring contracts in the Pittsburgh region: ADOPT the Comprehensive Rooney Rule-With Results; which includes Corporate Supplier Diversity. IMPLEMENT "Ban the Box". CREATE an action plan based on the CEIR Initiative to assess your organization's commitment to change, and develop a timeline for implementation.
