Svantaggi
Typical Non-Profit Challenges: low-pay positions especially for direct service staff, long hours, not many clear paths to move up, not a lot of quality supervision support, job responsibilities, and expectations can be unclear at times. Minorities, especially women often undermined, not valued as much as the cis-men in the organization. Conversations around lgbtqia+ inclusion, accessibility not always there or prioritized
