What we do

We work with the nonprofit sector, government partners, philanthropy, and other national and local allies to achieve systemic change that improves the quality of life for District residents by strengthening the advocacy and service capacity of the sector.

How we do it

We build and maintain relationships with elected officials, city administrators, local and national nonprofit, philanthropic and other allies to educate and increase the understanding of government leaders about the challenges nonprofits face. We advocate and mobilize campaigns to ensure the voice of community based nonprofits and nonprofit workers are heard. By engaging stakeholders, the Coalition increases the power of DC nonprofits, nonprofit workers, and residents.
