The NRC spoke with Dorene Wright from the Springfield Urban League (SUL, or “”the League””), a 2006 CEY grantee, to understand how her organization will proceed with its sustainability plan. Ms. Wright emphasized the importance of a holistic approach to sustainability. It is easy to focus entirely on the financial aspects of sustainability, she said, but doing so will create blind-spots, and you may miss non-financial solutions that will sustain the important work of your organization. Based on this discussion, the NRC put together a set of questions to help yourorganization think through various aspects of sustainability before sitting down to develop a plan. (Author abstract)
