School of Public Policy 497C - ST- Creating & Oper./Nonprofit

Are there things about the world you?d like to change? Are you hoping to have a lasting impact on society? Learn how to turn your aspirations into action by organizing, funding, operating, and governing an imaginary nonprofit organization. Students in this course will learn about setting realistic goals and measuring the organization?s impact, fund raising, governing an organization when things go well and when they don?t, and deciding when to change to a different structure or dissolve the organization. We will also meet leaders from nonprofits in the community who are dealing with the issues we discuss in the course.
