Poverty, health inequities and other systemic problems can’t be solved by one program or path. To make real progress, an interconnected approach is needed. Instead of targeting narrow needs, NWCC looks at the many barriers holding people back — from gaps in education, to inadequate nutrition, to economic isolation — then we create assets that address those deficits in a holistic way, inside and outside our of doors. By supporting people’s lives in a broad context, we create an impact far greater than the sum of our programs.
Working Smarter to Accomplish MoreIn a world of increasing needs and decreasing resources, how we work is as important as what we do. Becoming more effective and efficient requires ongoing investment in operational excellence from top to bottom. Our staff and partners go beyond conventional thinking, taking risks to pursue better, bolder and more farsighted ways to meet our goals. Throughout our process, we anticipate tomorrow’s needs and create the next generation of leaders and model programs.
