NP 1110 - Introduction to Nonprofit Organizations

(3)
The course is designed to provide a historical and current overview of America’s “third” sector (the not-for-profit sector), help students identify and explore social welfare issues, and understand the role of nonprofit organizations in a democratic society. A service-learning project will allow students to apply theories to a real-world situation and reflect on their work and issues that arise during the project.
