Home > Research > Joint SPEA, COP project assessing Hoosier NPOs | |
| The IU Center for Philanthropy and the IU School of Public and Environmental Affairs have been involved in a joint project titled “Indiana Nonprofits: Scope and Community Dimensions.” The multi-year, multi-phase project is being directed by Kirsten Gronbjerg, professor of public and environmental affairs and the Efroymson Chair in philanthropy.
The project is developing information on a broad array of topics related to the more than 60,000 nonprofit organizations (NPOs) in the state of Indiana. Areas that are being addressed are major policy and management challenges faced by NPOs. Researchers are assembling a database of NPOs in Hoosier communities as well as usable knowledge for practitioners in the field about their respective community’s nonprofit sector, about strategies for strengthening the sector and its connections to other organizations; and about how to respond in a systematic way to changes in public policy, funding, volunteer availability and other factors impacting the sector overall.
