The Resource Center for Nonprofit Mangement

Our History                                                                                                                                        

The Resource Center for Nonprofit Management (RCNM), a program of Volunteer Center of Riverside County, was founded in 1998 by a group of regional nonprofits whose representatives felt a need to build the capacity of all nonprofit organizations in Riverside and San Bernardino counties. 

 

Our Mission
To provide leadership and professional development resources that strengthen the nonprofit sector.

 

Our Services
The Resource Center for Nonprofit Management (RCNM) provides management training workshops and networking mixers at convenient times and locations throughout Riverside County. Presenters include executive managers of area nonprofits and experienced trainers and consultants from business and academia.

What our clients say about us

...A project that brings highly trained consultants to an organization to assess, analyze, and recommend fund development strategies in a highly specific and individualized manner is a specialized service that few nonprofits have the capacity to realize. --From an executive director of a regional nonprofit that received services from RCNM

Administering this project for Riverside nonprofits such as [ours] exemplifies the breadth of vision RCNM has and demonstrates a rare ability to assist in getting 'the rubber to meet the road'--From a California Endowment-funded client agency

...I have found that the course I took at RCNM to learn how to use the data base [of foundation funders] has been invaluable. My experience with RCNM has been simply wonderful. Staff is always professional and helpful.--From a Resource Library client agency
...If not for the intervention of this program by RCNM, it is not too strong a statement that my agency would be in disarray, without an executive director and with the board acting as the executive director…we are extremely pleased with the help of RCNM-From a Consulting Services Client

...I feel very comfortable with the consultants RCNM recommended to us and with the experience several of our staff have had with those consultants.--From a California Endowment-funded client agency
