In 2023, April reached another milestone by earning a license to provide consulting services to nonprofits interested in building capacity, accountability, and sustainability through the implementation of the Standards for Excellence® code—making her the only consultant in Nevada with this distinction. This license demonstrates that April has the knowledge, skills, and tools necessary to work with nonprofit organizations across the country.
The Standards for Excellence Institute® evaluates fundamental values such as honesty, integrity, fairness, respect, trust, responsibility, and accountability, all of which are inherently important in the nonprofit world. This national program has been formally adopted by several state, regional and national affiliate organizations, and is supported by over 300 Licensed Consultants and 75 volunteers with professional experience in nonprofit governance and administration. The Standards for Excellence® initiative helps nonprofit organizations achieve the highest benchmarks of ethics and accountability in nonprofit governance, management, and operations. The program currently has nearly 200 individual nonprofit organizations that completed a rigorous application and review process to demonstrate adherence to the Institute’s published Standards for Excellence® code.
