The University of Georgia Institute for Nonprofit Organizations

The University of Georgia Institute for Nonprofit Organizations The Institute offers a Master of Arts in Nonprofit Organizations and a certificate in Nonprofit Organizations! Visit nonprofit.uga.edu for more info!

The creation of this Institute was in response to current trends in the U.S. economy and in public policy that underscore the need for more effective leaders, managers, and professional staff throughout the nonprofit sector. Labor force statistics project dramatic increases in employment in this sector. Emerging changes in public policy suggest that demands on nonprofit organizations will increase

sharply and that well-prepared leaders will be essential for the survival and health of these organizations. The Institute seeks to prepare leaders who will strengthen the effectiveness of nonprofit organizations throughout Georgia and the nation. Its faculty develop knowledge through research, disseminate it through teaching, and provide services to the State through continuing education, consultation, and technical assistance. The Institute provides students with knowledge and skills necessary to effective performance of nonprofit organizations, and it provides opportunities to disseminate and apply this learning directly with organizations in the region. Please note, this Master of Arts program is also called Masters in Nonprofit Management. To date, The University of Georgia is one of only three schools in the nation that has an established center for Nonprofit studies. The director for the Institute for Nonprofit Organizations at the University of Georgia is Dr. Michelle Carney.

Thank you to all of our volunteers who participated in the annual Point in Time (PIT) Count of homeless individuals in Athens-Clarke County! The PIT Count is an annual survey of sheltered and unsheltered individuals and captures a snapshot of homelessness on one day in January.
We’d especially like to thank Jittery Joe's for their generous donation of coffee which helped warm those who were surveyed on this cold morning. And thank you to our membership organizations for providing volunteers!
