Member Testimonial

“Spokes is the only place we go for nonprofit resources—there is simply no other in the county. Our agency recently participated in workshops on Board Governance.  I have to say there was an instant and profound change in my Board: a group previously on the verge of splintering walked out of those sessions unified, with a strong sense of rights, responsibilities, and how to accomplish our vision.”
