It was established to strengthen relationships, build capacity, and ensure the sector holds an active voice in shaping policy. The initiative provides a platform for nonprofit leaders to engage with government officials. This enables nonprofits to provide input on legislation, regulations, and key decisions that impact their organizations and communities. Through ANVSI, the province acknowledges the vital role that nonprofits play in promoting inclusion and driving social innovation. The initiative supports research, knowledge-sharing, collective problem-solving, and mutual accountability to develop a more coordinated and impactful nonprofit landscape in Alberta.
