Through this 31-month systemic change project, the Black Screen Office will help advance Black women's representation in leadership and decision-making roles in the screen industry.

The organization will conduct focus groups with women and collaborate with employers to develop and implement an anti-Black racism framework and accountability system to conduct policy transformation in the industry.
