Event Details

Presented by Doug Sauer, CEO, New York Council of Nonprofits

Nonprofits of all types and sizes are under significant stress on a number of fronts that threatens to reduce our infrastructure and capacity to meet community needs through effective and sustainable services.  Theses challenges can seem overwhelming and beyond our control and organizations are finding it difficult to know where to start making the organizational changes necessary.  Organizational assessment, whether comprehensive or in strategically selected areas, is the foundation or basis for executing informed and effective strategies.  Simply put, your leadership needs to know and understand your organizational condition and viability before expecting meaningful changes, based on internally-driven priorities, to occur.

This workshop, supported by The Stewart W. and Willma C. Hoyt Foundation and The Community Foundation for South Central New York, provides an overview of what an assessment is and is not, along with the various methods, tools, indicators and processes for conducting an assessment; whether it be a self administered or provided with outside assistance or consultation.  Participants will also learn and discuss nonprofit assessment examples and receive assessment tools for use in their own organizations.

 

Participants will qualify to apply for the 2010 Southern Tier Capacity Building Mini-Grant Program, as well as special assessment support offered directly by the New York Council of Nonprofits. The  Mini-Grant Program and special assessment assistance are supported by The Stewart W. and Willma C.
