REFLECTIONS ON OPEN QUESTIONS: What questions are you still holding after yesterday’s conversations?
RECURRING THEMES
RESOURCING STRATEGIES FOR SCALE AND CAPACITY
How to resource the breadth and depth of capacity that already exist?! What amount of funding would give the NC orgs the runway to thrive and scale? Challenging environment makes it difficult and is the work & scale enough for the moment What is the most helpful thing funders can support? How can we get enough funding to cover the needs in 11 states? What is our role in being fundraisers for the region? Our resources are essential and distinct, but woefully less than what is needed for short- AND long-term needs What does it take to resource and scale the depth and breath required to matched the current threats and opportunities? Are any other states even close to NC in terms of organizational infrastructure? Is the foundation willing to consider investing in new approaches/capacities at state tables? Is North Carolina remotely replicable in the region because there is relative abundance of resources here? How are we seeing learning opportunities across states and connecting them with each other to build capacity and create new mentoring/support relationships? What org is telling the stories of our NC grantees?
