Prosperity Initiative's Madison Holland joins Rusty Stahl to discuss what it takes to support the youth-serving nonprofit workforce. They explore insights from our research, the urgency of investing in nonprofit professionals, and the shared roles of philanthropy, government, and nonprofits in building a more just and equitable sector.

In a San Francisco Examiner op-ed, our Executive Director, Madison Holland, shares the urgent challenges facing youth-serving nonprofits. The piece also spotlights the Children & Youth Fund Messaging Taskforce (CYFMT), a coalition of service providers working to amplify the collective voice of youth-and family-serving nonprofits across the city. The article calls on city leaders to reinstate the Cost of Doing Business (CODB) increase – the top priority among several outlined in the CYFMT memo – to help stabilize the workforce and strengthen the safety net for youth and families.
