The Association of Nonprofit Specialists is the go-to place for consultants and other specialists who support nonprofits. Our members are experts in fundraising, planning, IT, governance, finance, HR, marketing, evaluation and more.
We believe a strong consulting community leads to a strong sector. So we support the supporters – the trusted advisors and service providers to nonprofits in NYC and beyond – through various professional development offerings.
We also partner with funders and other capacity builders to bring our network’s expertise directly to nonprofits in the form of workshops, coaching and other resources. And we provide a free online Consultants Directory, so nonprofits can search for members with skills to meet their unique needs.
