  • This session aims to help organizations that are growing or planning to grow avoid common pitfalls and build a people-centered operations foundation that supports sustainable organizational growth.
  • Going Forward: Best Practices and Considerations for Nonprofit Re-Engagement was developed during the COVID-19 pandemic by the Oklahoma Center for Nonprofits, who generously shared it to meet the needs of other state associations.

  • Participants from a recent series of the EDI Roundtables for Nonprofit Executives share their key takeaways and honest feedback to consider along the EDI journey.
  • It can be helpful to take a few minutes at the beginning of each new year to reflect on and share challenges and achievements so we can recommit to our work going forward.
  • Developed from ongoing nonprofit management research and the Center’s guide, Principles & Practices: Best Practices for North Carolina Nonprofits, this 6-session series facilitates learning, discussion, and fundamental management strategies around board governance, program design and evaluation, strategic planning, fundraising, financial management, and human resources.
  • The Technology Association of Grantmakers and Tech Impact (a Money-Saving Partner of the Center) partnered to compile resources and topical toolkits within How to Fund Nonprofit Tech: A Guide for Funders and Nonprofits.

  • Initially published as organizations began to re-open and return in-person to workplaces after the COVID-19 pandemic, the considerations in Nonprofit Risk Management Center's article, Take 10: Resume and Thrive Strategies, can help any organization reasses its business strategies and reinitatie its programs and services after an abrupt change, closure, or crisis.

  • Planning for a successful executive transition is a critical component of strategic planning for all organizations and is key to sustainability.

    Creating a vision statement guides us into the future. It helps us reflect on where we have been as we consider the path forward. The Center has been on a multi-year journey to strengthen our commitment to equity, diversity, and inclusion, and we’re sharing our journey as we travel this road.
