43. CEN Empowering Nonprofits

This week, we explore possibilities for supporting the sustainability of nonprofit leaders and the organizations they serve. The speaker's organization, CEN, has adopted IDEAL values (Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, Access and Liberation) that ground its approach to ensure more just and impactful outcomes for the sector. This session will explore the challenges and opportunities CEN and its community members face and ways to get involved and support their efforts. Shana Peete serves as the current Chief Executive Officer for the Center for Excellence in Nonprofits (CEN). Prior to joining CEN in 2019, she was the founding executive director of a Tri-Valley nonprofit dedicated to offering individuals and families a hand up from poverty. She has a Bachelor of Science in international business and a Doctor of Jurisprudence. Before moving to the Bay Area, Shana practiced law for eight years. In addition, she has professional experience that includes managing the Excel Child Development Center, serving as a program coordinator for Read Aloud America, and managing a 30-person customer fulfillment team for Amazon. In her spare time, she enjoys teaching the game of tennis to students of all ages and using her gift of communication—in English and Spanish—to bring people together.
