Our Second Cohort for Digital Policy Practitioners is Underway!

Earlier this month, we successfully launched our second cohort for advanced digital policy practitioners. These Cohorts are designed to complement our Emerging Leader Cohorts and address more advanced practices and topics, designed to align with the goals of more experienced practitioners. As with all our cohorts, our overall objective is to create a space where we collectively explore policy leadership themes, share our experience and knowledge, and work through policy challenges.

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.
