Nonprofit Career Month: Discover Your Niche

Really, there's no better way to learn about the third sector than from those who know best: nonprofits. Whether you're preparing for a career at a nonprofit or just researching the landscape you're looking to change, keeping in touch with your field is important. To help narrow the search, we've put together a tagged collection on nonprofit employment that includes information on leadership development, nonprofit governance, community organizing, employment and wage data, and much more.

For more information on Nonprofit Career Month and to find additional resources, be sure to visit www.nonprofitcareermonth.org It's the pilot year for this Idealist campaign, which “dispels common myths about nonprofit work, provides individuals with entry points to the sector, and allows current and aspiring nonprofit professionals to share expertise.” There, you'll also find the full version of my post on the topic with more details on what's in our special collection and how to use it!

What's your niche? Have you found research on IssueLab that was helpful in your new job? Leave a comment to let us know!
