Independent Sector advocates for public policies that protect and strengthen the ability of individuals to support nonprofits and foundations and the ability of these organizations to fulfill their missions. We serve as the unified voice and source of information on the most pressing legislative, regulatory, and economic issues facing the charitable sector.

Nonprofit Voice
2020
The nonprofit sector is an economic powerhouse, a trusted source of information, and an essential partner for any policymaker with big goals. But these essential messages will only be heard if we use our voice, particularly during election season. Visit our 2020 election headquarters for comprehensive resources on how to leverage this year’s elections to advance our missions.

Civil Society Infrastructure
In 2020, Independent Sector and KABOOM! formed a coalition known as the Nonprofit Infrastructure Investment Advocacy Group to identify, and advocate for, the essential federal investments needed to rebuild the nation in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, economic crisis, and racial injustice reckoning of 2020.
