Strengthening the Organizations That Strengthen Colorado
Colorado nonprofits are essential to the health, prosperity, and resilience of our communities. Yet nonprofit leaders are navigating unprecedented challenges—from funding uncertainty and workforce pressures to rapid technological change and increasing community needs.
That’s where the Colorado Nonprofit Association comes in.
For 40 years, CNA has been the statewide champion for Colorado’s nonprofit sector—equipping organizations with the knowledge, connections, and resources they need to thrive. We bring nonprofit leaders together to learn from one another, amplify the collective voice of the sector, and build stronger organizations capable of creating lasting impact.
CNA also leads advocacy efforts on behalf of Colorado nonprofits at the state level and works alongside national partners to advance federal policies that strengthen and protect the nonprofit sector.
Because when nonprofits are stronger, Colorado is stronger.
