The structures, practices, and cultures of the nonprofit sector are failing to empower the full potential of the people who work within.  At the same time, the sector struggles to meet the challenges of our times. The Nonprofit Democracy Network is a community of practice that is evolving the sector from the inside out.

We are a group of organizations and workers supporting each other to make nonprofit organizations more equitable, participatory, responsive, and leaderful.  

We are moving away from old models of governance, management, and strategy that were inherited from the very systems we are trying to change.  

We are developing leadership and governance practices rooted in our anti-oppressive, democratic, and liberatory values.  And creating more effective and accountable organizations as we do it.

We are weaving the nonprofit sector together with broader movements for a solidarity economy and collective liberation.  

We are a group of people and organizations living into a beautiful vision of how we can do the work of social transformation, ensure justice, and steward our planet.

We are a community of practice. We are a community of support. We are a movement to shift how social change work is done in the nonprofit context

And, we would love to have you join us!
