Organizations Filed Purposes: Since 1964, the national award-winning Center for Volunteer & Nonprofit Leadership (CVNL) has advanced nonprofits and volunteerism by strengthening leadership, encouraging innovation and empowering individuals in service to their communities. CVNL knows that passion alone is not enough when it comes to creating strong nonprofits. That is why we work with aspiring and established leaders every day to help them build the skills, connections and strategies that can take their impact to the next level. With confident and prepared leaders, nonprofits are better equipped to create healthy, happy communities.

Nonprofits throughout Marin, Napa, Sonoma, Solano and the surrounding Bay Area rely on CVNL for expert guidance, professional and organizational development, and nonprofit management expertise through Volunteer Services, Leadership Programs, Executive Search, and Consulting Services.In 2019, CVNL's Learning & Leadership department served a total of 456 professionals through a collection of leadership training programs and professional development curriculum. 17 leaders in Spring 2019 graduated the Excellence in Leadership Program, formerly called the Emerging Leaders Program. The Library Resource Center, used by nonprofit professionals to conduct grant research, now features access to GrantStation and 15 organizations have utilized our discounted partnership program to strengthen their fund development planning process.CVNL's Executive Search department placed seven senior level positions and two interim directors in organizations throughout the Bay Area.CVNL's Consulting Services advanced the capabilities of more than 57 organizations through consultation, coaching and training on issues related to board governance, organizational assessment, fund development, executive coaching, organizational planning and meeting facilitation, among others. We also provided technical assistance and episodic guidance to dozens more organizations. CVNL had an active membership pool of 274 members to whom we provided an array of services and benefits including discounts on educational training sessions. Produced by CVNL, the 26th Annual Heart of Marin Awards recognized outstanding Marin nonprofits and the committed individuals who served throughout the previous year.
