Non-Profit Leadership Training Courses, offered by Patrick Henry Community College this Fall 

Introduction to Non-Profits
Instructor: Nancy Bell Dethlefson
This class provides the participants with an overview of how nonprofit organizations differ from both government and for-profit organizations. Properly leading and managing an organization requires a clear understanding of why nonprofit organizations exist and their role in the economic and societal elements of society. Understanding the proper role of the nonprofit organization assists in identifying the appropriate mission of the nonprofit organization. This class also provides the participants with a method for developing and implementing a business plan designed to guide the nonprofit organization in attaining its mission. Business planning is a formalized process by which a nonprofit organization develops a plan to secure its future.
Tuesdays, October 19 - November 16, 6:00-9:00 pm. Tuition: $99
