The Leadership We Want to Foster

In 2023, we launched the Policy Leadership Initiative to advance equitable digital policy by elevating underrepresented voices in policy-making arenas. We aimed to do this by supporting, educating, and empowering diverse leadership by offering opportunities to develop essential policy skills and strategies.

As a fresh EU mandate manifests, and elections continue to take place around the world, fostering policy leadership has never felt more important.

What's Ahead and What's Behind

On May 3, we visited the Nonprofit Innovation Center and the Center for Multicultural Cooperation in Sacramento as part of our Listening Tour to see what nonprofit's in the area are struggling with online. Last week, we had a great time in Modesto finishing up another Central Valley eAdvocacy training. Thanks to Congregations Building Community (CBC), CCROPP Merced County, El Concilio, and Plaza Comunitaria al Exito for attending and providing great input throughout the day!

Facebook Page vs. Group for Nonprofits

Hi All,

During our previous meet ups in Fresno, Modesto, and Visalia, several people had questions about how to best set up and use Facebook for their organization.

Currently, many orgs have individual Facebook profiles set up instead of using Facebook groups or pages.

To help you figure out what's right for you, here is a blog that explains why you shouldn't have an individual Facebook profile for your org and sorts the differences of a Facebook group vs. page.
