A key element of NNAAC’s mission is supporting the growth and sustainability of our member organizations.  Our Organizational Development program helps members through one-on-one technical assistance, identifying local and online trainings, annual capacity building grants, and a scholarship fund to attend relevant trainings.  The program also organizes a national conference annually that offers trainings, workshops, plenaries, peer-to-peer learning, networking, and an awards dinner.

This year’s conference was held along-side the Arab American Institute’s National Leadership Conference Sept. 30-Oct. 2, 2011 in Dearborn, MI.  Here are a few topics covered to help your organization!
