On-line Resources for Nonprofit Organizations' Staff and Clients
NEW
Until or in addition to publishing our own NPC Resource Directory, we offer this Nonprofit Consultant Directory Monterey Bay Please note: January 2021, the Community Foundations suspended any updates or additions to the Directory for now.
There are many reasons to seek a consultant to work with your nonprofit, such as to help you manage a task or project that requires special knowledge or even to help you develop a particular skill set or system. You may call on a consultant to facilitate planning or develop strategies, for example, or to design or evaluate programs. Consider what skills you expect the consultant to bring, how much time you will need, and how much you can afford.
Contact the Center for Nonprofit Excellence staff at (831) 375-9712 orcne@cfmco.org or Kevin Heuer at Community Foundation Santa Cruz County (831) 662-2030 kheuer@cfscc.orgif you have questions or problems using this directory.
