NPO Development
The NPO Development Program helps people develop and implement funded educational projects and programs and grow them into new nonprofit organizations.
If you have an idea for transforming a community need into hands-on action, NCC can help you. Sometimes the only thing preventing a big idea from growing is a place to nurture it. NCC provides the organizational capacity to cultivate your vision and craft a solution.
Collaborations: Helping individuals and for-profit education and economic development businesses grow and extend their programs through partnering, project management, fundraising, and marketing.
For example, the Rocky Mountain Workshops
Fiscal Sponsorships: Helping aspiring non-profits grow their programs within NCC until they are ready to take the next steps in creating a new organization to carry out their mission and vision.
Creating New Non-Profits:

Education Regeneration
The primary goal of this program is to divert commercial wood waste from Front Range landfills to vocational students to enhance their skills, reduce financial strain, and increase their ability to obtain careers in related fields.
One of the objectives is to provide education around reuse and recycling technology and economics to these CTE program participants. This is accomplished through partnering with local manufacturing businesses within the northern Front Range.
NCC has engaged with commercial manufacturers and producers to provide clean hardwood and other lumber material scrap to meet the consistent demand in the existing market segment of school district CTE programs.
By partnering with local school district Career Technology Education (CTE) programs, administrators, and educators, students are provided the opportunity to design, manufacture, and build their own products in their classrooms.
