5.1: Tools for Non-Profits

Provide Tools to Community-Based Non-Profits to Act as Force Multipliers

Other Information:

Community-based non-profits (CBNPs) act as front-line partners to HUD's mission delivery programs, and empowering and supporting their entrepreneurial capabilities is a vital tactic in HUD's strategy for achieving its missions. The Department will make available a suite of tools, guidance, and practices that may help existing and emerging CBNPs incubate, become established, sustain their operations, and improve their overall efficiency and effectiveness. HUD will assess best practices from the venture capital, non-profit development, and association communities to identify the most effective ways that HUD can support the CBNP community. HUD will help incubate existing and emerging CBNPs in order to establish them as force multipliers in their communities, meaning they will increase HUD's ability to achieve its mission and reach its customers through these proxy CBNP groups. As a result, HUD's customers will increasingly receive support from this wider "ecosystem".
