Weaving Connections Across Movements
Thanks for your interest in joining or renewing your membership in one or both of our Peer Networks! Our team is still finalizing the registration process for 2026. We appreciate your patience. Please note that membership prices will remain the same next year!
Our peer networks are spaces of shared experience, reciprocal support, and collective strength. These networks are designed to help nonprofit human resources and finance leaders exchange insights, tackle challenges, access mentorship opportunities, and participate in discussions about equitable leadership and decision-making practices. Together, we strive to dismantle oppressive systems and reimagine leadership rooted in equity and care.
Our Approach
The people in core operations roles are essential to an organization's effectiveness and power. They are the storytellers, the organizers, the keepers of organizational knowledge, purpose, and culture.
We want this to be a space where Finance and HR practitioners weave connections and coordinate actions to envision and re-organize nonprofit structures and resources in regenerative ways. In order to build collective power that nurtures movements toward a world that is free from interlocking systems of oppression.
If that vision speaks to you, we hope you'll join us!

How Do Our Networks Build Peer Power?
Through our listservs, hundreds of nonprofit leaders exchange questions, advice, challenges, and wisdom as a form of mutual support. The listserv is very active, populated with many experienced folks, and full of helpful information. Joining is a great way to break out of the isolation that usually comes with holding finance and human resource roles in nonprofit organizations.
Movement Operations Labs
For the past 5 years, we have been convening the Peer Network Cafes. These cafes were a response to peer network members' desire for an online convening space throughout the pandemic. Members are still expressing a need for peer support spaces, but also to share knowledge and practices for the quickly changing nonprofit landscape that focuses on keeping the integrity of the values and missions of our organizations.
A new call to action.
The idea of Movement Operations is: operations work (legal, compliance, Finance, HR, etc) done with the explicit understanding that the rules, regulations, and practices that govern these roles are not apolitical, and in many cases, do not represent the values of ourselves or the organizations we are part of.
Navigating this space needs to be done in a way that is political and strategic to help our organizations build greater progressive power and sustain our institutions.
Movement Operations Labs are spaces of investigation, experimentation, and uncovering organizational systems, policies, and cultural practices to navigate the complex conditions of this period and to weave connections and coordinate action for our shared liberation.
