About the Institute for Nonprofit Practice
The Institute for Nonprofit Practice (INP) works to ensure that the nation's nonprofit, public sector, and social impact leaders have the skills, knowledge, networks, and confidence to boldly advance their organizations and missions and build a more equitable future for all.
INP serves social impact leaders who are driving solutions to some of the most pressing issues of our time. Nonprofits constitute the third-largest sector of the U.S. workforce - nearly 1 in 10 workers - yet the sector continues to face a chronic deficit of investment in the people who power it. The types of peer-to-peer learning and exchanges that INP offers are needed more than ever as the sector wrestles with a set of challenges that have mounted over the past few years - including workforce shortages, high burnout and turnover rates, and a rising demand for services - that can significantly undermine organizational effectiveness. With an 19-year track record of delivering programs that measurably increase leaders' key leadership skills, confidence, and networks, INP is committed to meeting this moment by continuing to empower social impact leaders to adapt and thrive amidst these obstacles.

  • Serve as a warm, welcoming ambassador for INP across donor touchpoints, from scheduling and front-line correspondence to greeting guests at meetings and briefings.
  • Support proposals and reporting: Gather necessary data and supporting documentation to assist in drafting funder proposals and reports.
