Strong strategic planning requires more than a great plan. It requires a board that understands its role in moving that plan forward.
Join Georgetown Health Foundation on October 1 for an in-person training led by Becky Pastner focused on the board’s role in strategic planning.

Together, we’ll explore how board members and nonprofit leaders can work more effectively through the planning process, get clearer on roles and responsibilities, and keep the organization grounded in its mission as it looks ahead.

Carver Center for Families�October 1,�9:00 AM–1:00 PM.

If you are interested in joining one of these groups and would like to be notified of dates and meeting locations, please fill out the interest form here: https://forms.gle/AfgZLAMF4J9EsAcR8

Facilitated by Candi Gadison, Executive Director of Impact Counseling Services, our Catalyst Care Circles aim to strengthen the nonprofit ecosystem by creating space for connection and peer support among nonprofit professionals, helping to build a supportive network that strengthens the well-being and resilience of those working in the nonprofit sector.

Candi's unique combination of nonprofit leadership experience and mental health training make her an ideal facilitator for these groups.

These aren’t networking meetings, but a safe space to connect with others who do the same work, carry the same load, and understand the same struggles.

Partnering with Impact Counseling Services allows us to offer high-quality, professional support while taking My Community Catalyst back to its roots—supporting and connecting the underserved communities of Eastern Williamson County—and we couldn’t be more excited!
