The BDS Agency Founder and President Brian D. Stanchak has been named to the Advisory Board of the newly formed Rising Coaches Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Alliance. The DEI Alliance’s mission will be to use the platform as leaders in sports to impact changes for equality in our communities and our profession. This DEI Alliance will partner with leadership from several minority and diversity groups and conduct monthly meetings to address equality and social justice issues and initiatives.

The DEI Alliance will be led by Executive Director Darryl Jacobs.
