Will County Partnering with Joliet Junior College to Host Nonprofit Management Trainings

Will County is hosting three workshops on nonprofit management as part of a partnership between the Will County Land Use Department’s Community Development Division and the Joliet Junior College Entrepreneur & Business Center. Three sessions will be held in April and May on different topics to provide local non-profit leaders an opportunity to improve their governance and management skills.

“Nonprofits are frontline workers in the community and have firsthand knowledge of the needs in the communities they serve,” said Community Development Director Martha Sojka. “We’re happy to partner with Joliet Junior College on these sessions to empower our local nonprofit leaders to build capacity and improve their operations.”

Sessions are open to any staff member or board member of a nonprofit agency working in Will County. All sessions will be held at the Joliet Junior College City Center Campus located at 235 N. Chicago St, Joliet, IL 60432.

The schedule for nonprofit training workshops is as follows:

• Session 1 - Governance & Operations - April 17
• Session 2 - Financial Management & Funding - April 24
• Session 3 - Operations & Asset Management - May 1

Each session is limited to 50 attendees. Attendees are not required to register for all three sessions. Attendees can register by emailing lugrants@willcountylanduse.com at https://forms.office.com/g/G2EGdkQVcR.
