Keynote speaker Jitinder Kohli,
director at Deloitte Consulting LLP and Senior Fellow at the Center for
American Progress, will share his perspective on the increasing
importance of evidence of impact in nonprofit and public sectors. From a
national perspective, he will discuss the federal government’s funding
strategy, the U.K. model used increasingly by the U.S., and how public
investments are now being translated into impact.

Forum Topics:
• Innovative evaluation models that support building evidence.
• Emerging funding models in the social service sector.
• Nonprofits, philanthropy and government partner to more effectively understand impact.
• How we as a community prioritize and invest in the highest impact approaches and programs.
