Leading the Way
View through CrossRef
There are numerous leadership opportunities and a great need for more effective leadership in the nonprofit sector. While community leadership is one of the 18 community psychology competencies, it is rarely addressed by community psychologists or taught in community psychology graduate education programs. In this chapter, a framework and rationale for community leadership is provided along with ideas and encouragement for community psychologists to become more intentional in using a community leadership framework. Principles for effectively working with and within nonprofits are provided along with the qualities needed for effective leadership. Community psychology students are motivated to work in the nonprofit sector because they care deeply about the social justice and health issues addressed by these organizations, so we included ideas for how students could develop a leadership framework and pursue experience with nonprofits as part of their education. Working with the assumption that all community psychology activity should have empowerment as one of its outcomes, a community leadership framework ensures giving voice to nonprofit staff and those they serve.
