Date: 2005

Abstract:
This edition of Carnegie Results focuses on the Standards for Excellence, a Maryland-based capacity-building and self-regulation initiative designed to help nonprofit organizations adopt best practices for management and to instill greater accountability. Although a foundation-supported national replication project has only been recently launched, there are already positive indications that the Standards program is contributing to the development of a strong culture of setting and adhering to standards in the nonprofit community.
