Affiliation Solutions Provided by NYCON

We Educate Guide and Support
NYCON knows nonprofits and we know the anxieties, risks and
opportunities that come with the consideration of affiliating
with another organization.  NYCON educates by providing training sessions on affiliation in communities across the state for
nonprofits and funders, and providing our members with informational resources and tools through our website or upon request.  NYCON professionals are available to advice and consult
our members throughout the process, from the very earliest
stage of thought and inquiry, to actively engaging a partner.
We have successfully completed over 100 affiliations in the past
10 years, our staff have experienced the nuances of affiliation as
well as the social, political, and regulatory hurdles occasionally
placed before it and have provided time-and-time again a comprehensive, tailored solution to achieve success.
