Delivering impact starts here….

 

With more than 45 sessions and workshops, the Alliance Annual Conference is designed by and for nonprofit capacity builders, nonprofit leaders, grantmakers and academics. 

 

Management Support Organizations
MSO leaders share their experiences in leading successful MSOs, developing partnerships, delivering top-rate training and more.  Sessions on MSO sustainability, social enterprise, marketing of services, partnerships with consulting firms and ample opportunities for peer exchange will abound.

Consulting Firms & Independent Consultants
Being successful as a nonprofit consultant takes far more than just technical know-how.  The conference includes a range of sessions addressing the business side of your work, issues facing experienced consultants, growing your consulting firm and how to survive and thrive in the technical assistance marketplace.

Grantmakers
For grantmakers, the Alliance conference offers a unique opportunity to engage directly with specialists in areas that concern your grantees, such as collaboration, accountability, and financial management.

Academic Centers, Researchers & Students
This vibrant network of thoughtful practitioners is a terrific resource as you develop curricula, design research, and work with your own local nonprofit community.  Leading academics – or "pracademics" who blend research and practice will lead sessions that bring forward the critical role of academia in strengthening nonprofit performance.

National Networks & State Associations
Network, learn and share with colleagues and bring practical solutions back to your members.  State association leaders gather at this inspiring conference to build stronger state associations that elevate, educate and energize the nonprofits you serve.

Social Change & Grassroots Organizations
Context is everything in organizational effectiveness – organizations might be able to "check the boxes" in terms of financial systems, number of board meetings, and qualifications of staff, but are they really connected to the communities they serve?  Presenters will lead discussions and workshops on generating change, cultural competency, leadership development, building capacity for social change, reaching out to rural communities, evaluation and more.

Governance Professionals & Board Members
Join some of the nonprofit sector’s leaders for a provocative and insightful dissection of today's nonprofit governance issues, including recent research.  A series of workshops and sessions at the conference will invite participants to share experiences, challenge existing models, and take home practical ideas for working with and on nonprofit boards.

Nonprofit Leaders, Sector Advocates & YOU!
Nonprofit leaders offer insights into organizational success for a broad audience.  If you are interested in leadership development, strategic planning, cultural competency, human resources and accounting or leading-edge thinking in organizational effectiveness, this conference is for you!
