Content: Treehouse is currently in a partnership with AnitaB.org, The Boys & Girls Clubs of America, and Aminé for Project: Unlock the American Dream.

What he teaches us: Why hiring a diverse team is critical. “… if we only build products for white people, then we limit our market. And so there’s no way that I as a white guy understand what a black woman needs and wants.

So diversity and equity and inclusion are really important from a business perspective,” says Ryan. Arlan Hamilton
