Center For Nonprofit Strategy And Management (CNSM)

The Center for Nonprofit Strategy and Management (CNSM) is a globally-recognized leader in analyzing the evolving role of nonprofit organizations in our society, politics, and the economy.

Through community engagement, teaching, and research, it examines how nonprofit organizations intersect with government, business, philanthropy, and communities to help solve today’s most pressing policy issues. CNSM’s New York City location promotes active engagement with the nation’s most complex nonprofit sector, and secures internship and placement opportunities with many nonprofit organizations.
