This full-day event brings together nonprofit leaders to discuss public policy issues that are important to nonprofits based in the Triad and the people and communities they serve.
Morning Session: David Heinen, Vice President for Public Policy and Advocacy at the North Carolina Center for Nonprofits, will provide a briefing on nonprofit sector trends and key public policy challenges and possible solutions for nonprofits in 2025 and beyond. With several major policy developments affecting the nonprofit sector in the past month and the state legislative session underway, this will be a timely and important conversation not to miss. After you register, you'll receive a link to a survey that will inform the convening; be sure to share your input.
Lunch Speaker: Barbara Lentz is an innovative advisor, teacher, and attorney who has been active in the nonprofit and philanthropic sectors her entire career. Barbara brings real life experiences and scenarios to her work, advising nonprofits to think creatively and work collaboratively to solve problems. She will share best practices in grassroots advocacy and practical tips participants can use to get activated…together.
Activation Afternoon: Using what’s learned in the prior sessions, activation teams (made up of you!) will develop strategies and tactics to build power while centering those who will be most affected by emerging policies.
The registration fee includes lunch.
This session is a collaboration among the North Carolina Center for Nonprofits, Resilience High Point, HandsOn NWNC, Business High Point: The Interchange, and the Guilford Nonprofit Consortium.
