Building Capacity in Nonprofit Organizations (Document)
Carol J. De Vita, Cory Fleming

The report aims to advance the ongoing conversation about capacity building, intending to push toward the intersection where research informs practice. This transfer must occur for the work to benefit the field. The final section of this report discusses how each stakeholder—nonprofit practice, foundation, and research—might work to turn knowledge into action. Each of these groups has responsibilities for strengthening the health, not only of individual nonprofit organizations, but of the local nonprofit sector and the overall community as well. By examining capacity building from a new perspective and agreeing to work collaboratively, each group can reinforce the other's efforts. In the end, they will know more about what works, what does not work, and why.
