CEP’s research focuses on bringing data to bear on issues central to funder effectiveness, and we strive to develop findings that are as practical and actionable as possible. We are always seeking feedback on the usefulness of our research. Earlier this year, we published two pieces:

Working with Grantees: The Keys to Success and Five Program Officers Who Exemplify Them

A Time of Need: Nonprofits Report Poor Communication and Little Help from Foundations During the Economic Downturn

Did either of these pieces have an impact on the way you think about your work?

Feedback from you, our audience, is essential for us to continue to produce research that can help foundation leaders and staff be more effective in their work to create positive change.

Editor’s Note: CEP publishes a range of perspectives. The views expressed here are those of the authors, not necessarily those of CEP.
