Third Sector New England provides information and services to build the knowledge, power and effectiveness of nonprofit organizations that engage people in community and public life. We act also to promote wider recognition of community-based organizations as the primary stewards of our core societal values. The ultimate intention of our work is to create a more just and democratic society.

The Societal Vision Which Inspires Our Work

At TSNE, we envision a society grounded in and guided by principles of social and economic justice and mutual respect, where community-based organizations take the leadership role in shaping the country's future. We believe that to realize this future, people must be actively engaged in building and holding responsible the systems that affect their lives.
