It’s a challenging world for nonprofits and the communities we serve. COVID-19 has deeply exacerbated our community's greatest inequities and the road to recovery has been pitted by roadblocks and slowdowns. Silicon Valley Council of Nonprofits welcomes nonprofits to our Activate Your Impact Policy Summit from February 15 to February 17.
This year's theme is Driving Fearless Advocacy. Designed for nonprofits that want to take their advocacy efforts to the next level, our summit speakers will provide inspiration and practical guidance about how to fearlessly drive policies that advance social justice for oppressed communities. As always, the summit will provide tools to help nonprofits further policies that will advance their missions.
On February 15, we'll gather for Housing Policy A to Z: What Nonprofits Need to Know in 2022.
Nonprofit leaders rate the ongoing affordable housing shortage as an extremely important policy issue that our nonprofit community should tackle. But how can we do that when there are so many complex housing policy issues out there?
Our panelists will decode the heretofore complex environment of housing policy so not only can you better understand what's on the docket of local governments, but you'll also have the tools to weigh in!
