Whether they offer housing, health, education, disaster relief, environmental conservation, or other services, nonprofits are woven into and reflect the communities they serve. They work every day to improve lives and build a brighter future.

The Nonprofit Sector Strength and Partnership Actof 2022 will strengthen the nonprofit sector, make the federal government a more effective partner with nonprofits, improve access to data about the nonprofit sector, and raise awareness of the nonprofit sector throughout government.

This bill will help government and the nonprofit sector work together more effectively in pursuit of shared goals. Federal, state, and local governments rely on the nonprofit sector and its ability to harness and direct the generosity, service, and volunteerism of the American people. Just as small businesses have the Small Business Administration (SBA) to facilitate access to federal resources, the nonprofit sector should be afforded this same level of support.

With this legislation, we will enable nonprofits to better serve their missions -- and in turn, strengthen our communities.
