This week we are joined by Dana Schaar Jahner,  the Executive Director of the North Dakota Association of Nonprofit Organizations (NDANO).  The mission of NDANO is to Educate, advocate and connect to strengthen nonprofits.  NDANO is the statewide membership association for the North Dakota nonprofit sector. Its members work in all mission areas, from human services and the environment to education and the arts, and represent all sizes, from small volunteer-run nonprofits to multi-million-dollar organizations, all across the state.

 

Dana and I discuss the importance of sector wide engagement in North Dakota. We explore the importance of cross sector advocacy and how telling your authentic story is important is just as important in creating systemic change as it is in raising funds.
