| Summary: | A decade since the Great Recession of 2008, youth development nonprofits continue to face unfunded community demands that threaten their fiscal health and long-term stability. This case study illustrates how Opportunities for a Better Tomorrow (OBT), a NYC-based nonprofit providing business skills training and employment programs to disadvantaged youth, was able to reverse its decline in program completion rates by over 5% and maintain steady post-program employment. This case offers students the opportunity to address capacity-building strategies to improve overall program outcomes, realize the funding challenges facing nonprofit organizations, and learn the strategies that serve both the organization's needs and public interest. |
