How can I join?
We would love to have you join our community of practice. Simply fill out our membership application above and you will hear back from us shortly.
-
Can I join if I’m not currently a nonprofit?
As part of our equity commitment and because we understand that you can be doing community building work without 501(c)(3) status, we invite any Virginia community building projects to join – fiscally sponsored, on the way to nonprofit status, or just a volunteer community project – as long as they can benefit from CNE support. Note: CNE does not consult on starting a nonprofit, but we provide free access to our Starting a Nonprofit Toolkit.
