NEW YORK CITY EPIP

New York City EPIP provides unique peer networking and professional development for young foundation professionals in the five boroughs and the surrounding area. NYC EPIP is led by a steering committee composed of members, and is a recognized peer network within the New York Regional Association of Grantmakers ( NYRAG). Launched in April 2001, NYC EPIP has provided a variety of high-quality professional and leadership development programs to hundreds of stakeholders.

Mentoring Program

NYC EPIP developed and ran a successful mentoring program that matched diverse emerging and seasoned grantmakers from an array of different foundations into semi-structured, six-month professional learning relationships. Between 2003 and 2006, the program provided great matches on a custom bases. As of fall 2007, the program has been place on indefinite hold, as the chapter assesses the current needs of its members, and the best ways to meet those needs.
