Welcome to The Hillman Collective Where Black Women Lead—and Equity Lives On

A Sanctuary for Justice-Driven Leaders and Displaced DEI Professionals

As DEI roles are dismantled and equity work comes under fire, many are left asking: What now?

The Hillman Collective is your answer. We’re a community of DEI professionals, scholars, and change-makers—rooted in the lived experiences of Black women and open to all who are committed to justice and inclusion.

We’re a refuge, a resource, and a rising force for those facing pushback, burnout, or displacement. Here, you’ll find:

  • Community to connect, heal, and build

  • Strategy to stay impactful and compliant

  • Opportunity for visibility, publishing, and paid collaboration

  • Care that values your humanity and your work

If you’ve been pushed out—or are simply seeking purpose—you belong here.

Join us. Be seen. Be supported. Keep building.
