Nonprofit Leadership Initiative

Working in the #nonprofit sector is incredibly rewarding, but it can also lead to #burnout if we're not careful. At NPLI, we incorporate self-care into our workday by: - Taking breaks: Stepping away from our work to recharge, even if it's just for a few minutes - Staying connected: Leaning on our support networks for encouragement and understanding - Practicing #gratitude: Focusing on the positives and celebrating small wins Join us in prioritizing self-care and share your own tips in the comments! Together, we can support each other in maintaining a healthy balance of work and well-being.

Thank you to all who joined us for today's Trauma-Informed Storytelling workshop. We hope you found new tools for sharing stories in a trauma-informed and empowering way.

Nonprofit leadership is all about networking, and what better place to do that than your local coffee shop? Whether you're meeting with a potential partner, brainstorming with your team, or getting inspired by the change of scenery, these spaces can be hubs of opportunity. As leaders, it's important to create an environment where ideas flow freely, relationships grow, and real impact is made. Despite the cold temperatures, step outside your office, grab your favorite brew, and start making those connections that will take your organization to the next level. By the way - the NPLI team members are HUGE fans of coffee. ??
