SUMMARY:Nonprofit Management Certificate (7-Sessions)
DESCRIPTION:SOLD OUT EVENT\nOverview\n\n\n\n\n\nBuild transformational leadership capacity to navigate complexity and drive systems change in the nonprofit sector. (March 5 to May 28)\n\n\n\nPlease note that this is an in-person\, multi-session cohort experience. Please see below for session dates and times. \nProgram Overview:\nThe Center for Nonprofit Management (CNM) offers an intensive 7-session Nonprofit Management Certificate Program held across a 3-month period. Designed as a cohort-based learning experience\, this program builds leadership capacity nonprofit professionals need to navigate the complex challenges facing the sector\, from unprecedented burnout and funding instability to increasing demands on workforce transformation post pandemic. \nOur teaching model centers peer learning\, real world application and a collective sense-making; participants will move beyond traditional management frameworks to develop new and transformational approaches to systems change at work. The cohort model creates opportunities for sustained relationships with fellow nonprofit leaders\, allowing you to learn alongside others grappling with similar challenges while bringing up your perspectives and experiences to the group. \nParticipants apply their learning through a culminating organization or community improvement project that speaks to the current real systems-level challenges. Throughout the program\, you’ll identify a meaningful challenge within your organization or community that requires more than technical fixes\, but something that calls for shifts in relationships\, power dynamics\, mental models\, or structural conditions. \nTopics Include:\n\nLeadership for Systems Change: Examine your positionality\, power\, and adaptive leadership approaches for navigating complexity and uncertainty\nGovernance as Structure and Power: Understand board dynamics\, equity in decision-making\, and reimagining governance models\nBuilding Sustainable Teams: Address the workforce crisis through whole person-informed practices and structural solutions to burnout\nResources as Values: Connect budgeting and financial management to organizational values\, equity\, and strategic priorities\nFrom Outputs to Transformation: Design programs and evaluation approaches that measure meaningful change\, not just activities\nRelationships and Resources: Navigate funding relationships\, power dynamics in philanthropy\, and community-centered resource development\n\nWho Should Attend:\nThis program is designed for nonprofit professionals with at least three years of experience as managers who: \n\nRecognize that traditional management approaches aren’t sufficient for the complex\, interconnected challenges facing the sector and your communities\nAre in a role where they have some influence over organizational practices\, team dynamics\, program design\, or community partnerships–and are ready to lead change\nAre open to examining their own positionality\, mental models\, and assumptions about how change happens\, not just acquiring new technical skills\nValue learning alongside others who bring different experiences and perspectives\, and are ready to both contribute to and learn from a cohort\n\nThis program serves professionals across various roles such as program directors\, managers\, emerging leaders\, and senior staff who are navigating the realities of today’s nonprofit workforce. \nThis program may not be the right fit if you’re primarily seeking technical skills training without interest in systems-level change\, you’re unable to commit to the full 3-month cohort experience\, or you don’t currently have a context where you can apply and test your learning. \nRegistration Fee:\n\nEarly Bird: $920 (ends February 5th)\nGeneral Admission: $1\,020\nRead CNM’s Refund Policy\n\nScholarships:\nIf you are a CNM Member or Scholarship Recipient\, please send an email to pnavarro@cnmsocal.org to inquire about elegibility and discount codes. \nThis program meets in-person on the following Thursdays from 9:00AM to 5:00PM (Pacific Time):\n\nMarch 5th: Developing our Foundation & Situating Ourselves within the Landscape\nMarch 19th: Your Mission\, Values\, Offerings and Meeting the Moment\nApril 2nd: Diversifying Funding Streams: Tools\, Skills for Fund Development Strategies\nApril 16th: Incorporating a Whole Person Approach to Our People\, Organizations and Ourselves\nApril 30th: Promoting Our Work: Understanding the Power of Narrative and Storytelling in Today’s Media Landscape\nMay 14th: Articulating Your Approach to Management\, Change and Leadership\nMay 28th: Leadership in Action: Project Presentations and Closing Celebration\n\nPlease note that Eventbrite will only populate your calendar automatically for the first session.

SUMMARY:Rooted and Rising: Practices for Whole-Person Resilience
DESCRIPTION:Overview\n\n\n\n\n\nStay rooted in your wellbeing so you can rise in your purpose.\n\n\n\nAbout This Webinar\nStay rooted in your wellbeing so you can rise in your purpose. \nIn a world that keeps asking us to do more and give more\, true resilience begins with remembering who we are and where we come from. This interactive session invites participants to pause\, breathe\, and return to their roots—body\, spirit\, and community. Together\, we’ll honor the collective fatigue of these times while cultivating practices that nourish balance\, connection\, and purpose. Through gentle movement\, guided reflection\, and ancestral grounding\, participants will leave with embodied tools to stay centered\, replenished\, and aligned in the work of healing\, justice\, and liberation. \nFacilitator Bio:\nDr. Patty is a transnational social worker\, healing-centered facilitator\, and founder of KLBRI\, a grassroots organization devoted to cultivating ecosystems of care\, cultural memory\, and collective well-being. A Xicana Indígena and Salvadoran daughter of diaspora\, she walks with the medicine of her ancestors\, weaving sacred traditions with liberatory practice. For over 15 years\, she has guided trauma-informed pathways for justice-impacted families\, trained hundreds in the Xinachtli rites of passage\, and shaped healing-centered strategies across California and beyond. Her work spans immigrant justice\, violence prevention\, racial healing\, and organizational strategy rooted in wellness and healing justice. Dr. Patty is a tender and fierce space-holder known for conjuring portals of reflection\, remembrance\, and radical possibility—where our spirits are invited to soften\, rise\, and reimagine what it means to belong\, to heal\, and to lead.
