Lead at the Forefront
Founded nearly fifty years ago, Forefront has remained steadfast in its commitment to building a vibrant and empowered social impact sector in Illinois. As a statewide organization serving both operating nonprofit organizations and philanthropies, Forefront bridges gaps and offers insight in ways no other organization can.
Though our commitment has remained, Forefront has continually evolved and shifted as we recognize the needs of our members and the larger sector. Forefront has more than 20 employees, including a seasoned and accomplished leadership team of C-Suite professionals, who are governed by a board of directors that represent experts, though leaders, and community leaders working within or adjacent to the social impact sector in Illinois. Each director is elected for a three year term and can server a maximum of two terms.
