UWNNS is a “Collective Impact” organization committed to listening to our northern Nevada community. We believe that it takes the entire community to make change happen, and when we come together to put our resources to work, we can solve our most pressing issues and create opportunities for a better life for all.
Our organization serves a unique role, providing a place where local nonprofits, businesses, elected officials, and community members who are passionate about an issue can come together and explore solutions on behalf of the community. With our partnerships, we look for lasting solutions, raise awareness surrounding our most pressing issues, and promote social and policy change to help strengthen northern Nevada families.
