Delaware Alliance for Nonprofit Advancement

DANA is a 28-year-old nonprofit organization that was created to serve and support other nonprofits in Delaware. We’ve gone through a revitalization over the past couple years. This has involved reconstituting our board, growing our staff, and writing a new strategic plan. The three main focus areas of this plan are: Skills Leadership (which includes our specialty focus on governance consulting), Voice Leadership, and Information Leadership.
DANA’s vision is for quality of life for all Delawareans to improve because nonprofits are delivering on their missions more efficiently and more effectively.
Being a first year ED, it has been a great experience to align our learning with DANA. Your educational services kept me from leaping off the ledge and has helped us move forward to a positive place. We are going into our 65th year of business and I believe we will be stronger because of our learning.
