Is your workplace prepared to create an environment where every mind can thrive?

One in five individuals is neurodivergent. Neurodivergent employees bring unique skill sets and problem-solving strategies, yet most workplaces were never designed with them in mind.

Join us at our Tampa training center this Thursday with expert Vicky Westra to learn how to create a neuro-ready workplace. Practice real strategies and leave with a plan you can put into action the next morning.

Could you completely step away from your work and nonprofit for 60 days?

Russ Robertson took a sabbatical this past summer to find out what would happen at his organization without him. It was an uncomfortable experiment with some invaluable lessons.

Russ believes nonprofit leaders deserve the same chance, and that funders can help make it happen.

Check out the link in the comments to read his reflections.

Be honest: how long could you step away from your organization right now?

We're celebrating our 30th birthday all year by elevating the outstanding impact of nonprofits across our region. As we look back on 30 years of impact, we asked nonprofit professionals how our programs have made them stronger leaders. Here's what Jemier Jenkins with Mt. Zion Human Services, Inc. had to say.

Be on the lookout for inspiring stories and fun content on the 30th of each month as we celebrate together!

After the 2024 hurricanes devastated the Tampa Bay region, Indhu Sekar and her husband experienced home damage like so many of their neighbors and friends. Owning a construction company, they worked around the clock, discounting their services to help people get back to livable spaces as quickly as possible.

"That experience gave me a ground-level view of the community's needs that I never had during my years working inside large institutions, and it reinforced that good governance and financial stewardship aren't abstract concepts; they're the difference between a family recovering quickly or struggling for months. I see board leadership as a natural extension of the accountability I've built my career on."

Indhu is one of 13 leaders starting our Evolve Board Fellowship that launches today. The program equips Tampa Bay professionals with the training and mentorship needed to govern with greatness and represent their communities. Upon graduation, we work to match them with a nonprofit for board service.

This is how we strengthen nonprofits and our communities together. ๐Ÿงก
