Nonprofit Leadership Academy

Our Nonprofit Leadership Academy (NLA) is designed for nonprofit executive directors, those who aspire to an executive position, and senior leadership teams that are leading staff and working with the board. Participants develop best practices for strategic thinking, organizing, and dealing with change.

NLA fosters supportive relationships among new and experienced executive directors and senior leadership while encouraging self-development and professional growth. Past participants have found tremendous value in getting to know their cohorts and discussing each other’s challenges and successes within their respective organizations.

The Class of 2025 kicks off on February 11, 2025. The deadline to register is January 28, 2025.

“Leadership York’s Nonprofit Leadership Academy provided me with an insight into my own leadership behaviors, good and bad. The benefit of having the opportunity to sit and learn from experts in York County’s non-profit world was invaluable as I continue to navigate leadership within our organization and the community. I’d recommend this program to anyone that is looking to strengthen their leadership competencies and expand their network in York County.”
— Laura Gurreri, President, Explore York, NLA 19
