Whereas children losing primary caregivers have a higher risk

Whereas bereaved children are at higher risk of reduced em-

Whereas parental bereavement is associated with a higher 
likelihood of risky behaviors that threaten the health and 
safety of bereaved children;

tinue to have even lower representation at every level of 
corporate employment and leadership; 
Whereas the Sadie Collective’s paper titled ‘‘Why are Black 
Women Missing from Corporate Leadership?’’ published 
in November 2020 showed that the number of Black 
women completing degrees in economics, finance, ac-
counting, and math fields is declining, which are often 
fields associated with corporate leadership; 
Whereas such study found that measures to remove barriers 
to the pipeline of corporate leadership for Black women 
in male-dominated fields include access to information, 
earlier education, and exposure to female mentors; 
Whereas The American Economic Association’s study entitled 
‘‘AEA Profession Climate Survey: Final Report’’ pub-
lished in September 2019 found that women, especially 
Black women, had to take the most measures to avoid 
possible harassment, discrimination and unfair treatment, 
hindering efforts to climb the corporate ladder; 
Whereas an Egon Zehnder study entitled ‘‘Global Board Di-
versity Tracker: Who’s Really on Board?’’ published in 
December 2020, showed that companies with more di-
verse executive teams and boards of directors perform 
better financially; 
Whereas such study showed that women directors contribute 
to important corporate-level outcomes because they play 
roles as leaders and mentors, as well as indirect roles as 
symbols of opportunity for other women, and inspire 
those women to achieve and stay with their corporations; 
Whereas such study found that more recognition of the valu-
able contribution of women directors to corporation value 
is needed;
