Too often, social sector organizations focus on helping the populations they serve without considering the ways in which their own staff and leaders need support. To sustain itself, social sector talent needs services that meet basic needs and ensure well-being. This discussion guide is for executive directors, CEOs, and other social sector leaders who are concerned about burnout and a lack of well-being within their organizations. The purpose of this guide is to help these leaders plan the actions they will need to take to address those issues so that they can meet their missions.

This discussion guide is part of a series intended to strengthen the support system for the social sector, which we refer to as the social sector infrastructure. To view other guides geared toward users, providers, and funders of the social sector infrastructure, visit urbn.is/45OyieF.
