Local Nonprofit Networks
Across Montana, nonprofit leaders are gathering locally to share information, network with one another, and learn new skills. Some groups are more formal than others. MNA encourages you to connect with local networks if one exists in your community.
National Council of Nonprofits
The National Council of Nonprofits is the network of approximately 40 state and regional nonprofit associations serving more than 25,000 member organizations nationwide. By linking local nonprofit organizations across the nation through state associations, the National Council helps small and midsize nonprofits manage and lead more effectively, collaborate and exchange solutions, engage in critical policy issues affecting the sector, and achieve greater impact in their communities.
