Cultivate connections and strive to model best practices

Produce "Principles & Practices” guide for nonprofit best practices. Provide confidential member assistance for challenges faced by nonprofits. Maintain robust website with resources, templates, articles, and toolkits on issues like fundraising, financial management, human resources, legal compliance, risk management, board governance, advocacy, technology, and public policy.

Population(s) Served
Adults

Track federal and state policy issues and keep nonprofits informed. Encourage nonprofits to speak out at the right moment with the right message to the right policymakers. Form coalitions to ensure that the sector remains unified on key policy issues. Connect practitioners to policymakers through town hall meetings, legislative lobby days, and other statewide advocacy events.

Population(s) Served
Adults

Connect our 1,200 nonprofit members serving all 100 NC counties. Convene the annual statewide Conference for North Carolina's Nonprofit Sector. Host and present webinars and workshops on topics such as financial management, legal compliance, equity, fundraising, and online engagement. Produce monthly newsletters to keep member nonprofits informed of current trends, tools, and information to increase organizational effectiveness and sustainability.

Population(s) Served
Adults

The nonprofit sector has a racial leadership gap, and few leaders are addressing the systemic barriers and practices to change it. The Walking the Talk initiative specifically addresses racial and generational leadership gaps, and the policies, practices, and organizational cultures in nonprofits that exacerbate them. As part of the on-going initiative, the Center presents equity-focused webinars and workshops, hosts focus groups and community discussions, curates an online library of resources, exercises, and toolkits, and convenes a cadre of NC equity consultants and practitioners.

Data
  • We employ non-traditional ways of gathering feedback on programs and trainings, which may include interviews, roundtables, and external reviews with/by community stakeholders.
Policies and processes
  • We use a vetting process to identify vendors and partners that share our commitment to race equity.
  • We seek individuals from various race backgrounds for board and executive director/CEO positions within our organization.
  • We have community representation at the board level, either on the board itself or through a community advisory board.
  • We measure and then disaggregate job satisfaction and retention data by race, function, level, and/or team.
  • We engage everyone, from the board to staff levels of the organization, in race equity work and ensure that individuals understand their roles in creating culture such that one’s race identity has no influence on how they fare within the organization.
