ACRC Webinar – Mergers and Acquisitions in Human Services: Approaching Unique Partnerships While Maintaining Culture and Mission
Presenters: Rich Rinaldi, Managing Director, Business Development & Strategic Growth, Devereux and Fran Sheedy Bost, M.Ed., Senior Advisor, Devereux/TCV Community Services
Running a human services nonprofit isn’t easy. Leaders deal with constant challenges like finding enough funding, following complex regulations, keeping up with new technology, and hiring the right people. Sometimes, it can feel like the only options are to go it alone or get taken over by a larger company — both of which can put a non-profit’s unique identity at risk.
This session offers real-life lessons from TCV Community Services’ partnership with Devereux. You’ll hear how organizations can grow and help more people by working together in a way that protects each of them, focusing on building strong cultures, systems, and missions that fit well together. Attendees will discover how sharing values and working closely during a partnership can keep a nonprofit’s legacy alive and make things better both organizations, their staff, and most importantly the individuals they serve.
This webinar is meant for CEOs, board leaders, and other senior leaders who are thinking about joining forces with another organization and want practical ideas to strengthen their mission and keep their nonprofit thriving for years to come.
