Nonprofit organizations often face unpredictable challenges that test their resilience and ability to serve their communities effectively. Navigating uncertainty requires clear strategies and practical tools designed to strengthen organizational capacity. The Wallace Foundation’s Strong Nonprofits Toolkit offers a comprehensive resource to help nonprofits build stability and adapt to changing circumstances.


Sarah Walker, who knows this toolkit well, will be speaking at the upcoming CACFP Roundtable Zoom event titled When Crisis Hits: Tools and Strategies for CACFP Programs. Her experience provides valuable perspectives on applying these types of tools in real-world nonprofit settings. Sarah will give voice to some of these concepts, to help us think about risk assessment and financial management.


We also have experts joining us to talk about regulating your body's response so you can make sound decisions, creating Safe Space policies, and real-world CACFP experiences of managing crisis by the Child Development Association (CDA). Learn more and join us next week!
