As we transition from one year to the next, we hope that the close of 2023 brought you time for rest, connecting with friends and family, reflecting on big wins from the past year, and big plans for the year to come. For me, just a few months into my new role as Membership and Administrative Coordinator at NCN, I am so excited for a new year of learning and growth both personally and across our shared spaces community. I continue to be inspired every day as I discover more about the meaningful work you all are doing individually and the incredible support you show each other collectively.
The peer network aspect of NCN is by far one of the greatest benefits of the membership community. Connecting and sharing with other organizations and professionals that are doing work that is similar in mission, services, location, and more, is at the heart of NCN’s work. The peer network, however, is only as strong as each member’s willingness to show up and share. Every thoughtful question asked, every recommendation given, every meetup or event attended, strengthens this community and its capacity to support the important work of social purpose real estate.
So, how can you show up in 2024? This month, we have plenty of opportunities to get you started! This week you can join our annual member-only networking event, Meet an NCNer, for a quick and easy way to meet a few new faces and connect with the community. You can also give just a few minutes of your time to complete NCN’s 2024 Survey or help grow the Member Resource Library with the Share the Love Resource Drive. Scroll down to learn more about all these opportunities and keep an eye out for more to come! At NCN we are grateful for each of you and your contributions, and we are so excited to grow and serve alongside you in 2024.
