Earlier this year, CICF hosted nonprofit office hours to help nonprofits navigate shifting national and state priorities. We heard where nonprofits most need support, and in response, we’re expanding the program into peer-learning conversations. These sessions are a chance to connect, share experiences, and walk away with ideas you can put into action right away.

How It Works

• These are virtual, facilitated, small-group discussions.

• Multiple virtual rooms will be available for each topic. You’ll select your topic when registering, and on the day of, you’ll be placed in a smaller room with your peers.

• Each discussion will be facilitated by a local expert who will guide the conversation and share their recommendations as appropriate.

• These are free to attend, but advance registration is required so we can assign rooms appropriately and keep group sizes meaningful.

• Multiple people from the same nonprofit are welcome to register.

• We ask that you arrive at the start (10 a.m. ET) so you can be placed in your room, but you are welcome to leave whenever your schedule requires.
