Established in 2000, the Center for Community-Based and Nonprofit Organizations at Austin Community College has served over 9000 individuals from over 3500 nonprofits, small businesses, and law firms, through the 500+ learning opportunities it has provided with the mostly pro bono services of over 200 session leaders.

A large percentage of all Center learning opportunities are made available without charge given the Center’s egalitarian approach to building the community’s capacity to address challenges by strengthening the nonprofit sector.

The Center exists to promote, leverage and facilitate community collaborations and partnerships that broaden the horizons and possibilities for the Central Texas Nonprofit Sector. These collaborations reflect the Center’s ability to bring business, government and nonprofit sectors together around common goals.
