Why MACC

When you join our network of 60+ human services nonprofits, you get a shared administrative staff who become part of your team, a learning community that connects you with experts and peers, and the power of our collective voice fighting to change the conditions limiting our sector’s impact. Together, we co-create the expertise, infrastructure, and collective power none of us could build alone. Running a nonprofit is hard. The administrative complexity, the funding pressures, the workforce challenges, the isolation of leadership — none of it goes away on its own. MACC exists to make this work easier and to make you stronger.

Benefits of Membership:

The Metropolitan Alliance of Connected Communities is a collaborative network of more than 60 human service nonprofit organizations. We use our collective scale, resources, and creativity to tackle challenges and explore opportunities in a way that no single organization could do alone.

When you join MACC you get the opportunity to:

Gain a shared staff

We provide the core business expertise any organization needs to run well. Our services were created by and are still owned and shaped by our network of nonprofits. We are your shared staff who become part of your team building the deep relationships that make shared services work.

Boost your voice

We work together to change the conditions limiting our sector’s impact — advocating with the power of our collective voice for funding that works, data practices that center community, and a public narrative that reflects the true value of human services work.

Learn and connect

We bring our network together to connect with experts, thought leaders, and each other giving you the knowledge, perspective, and peer support you need on the topics that matter most to your work and your leadership. You get access to a robust resource library and monthly learning events.

Our members are the heart of everything we do.

Meet the 60+ human services nonprofits across our network who are connecting our neighbors to the resources, structures, and support they need to build the healthy, vibrant, equitable communities they envision – from food access and housing to mental health, workforce development, and beyond. Curious if organizations you know and trust are already part of our collaborative? You’ll probably see some – take a look!

Who We Serve

MACC members are human services nonprofits working in partnership with their communities to build strong, healthy, vibrant, and equitable places where everyone can thrive. Our members deliver community-centered programs for individuals, children, and families, working with their communities to build solutions, shine a light on unjust systems, and provide critical resources to communities that have been intentionally underinvested in. MACC members are doing extraordinary, mission-driven work with the power to create transformational impact in their communities, and they deserve a network that helps them reach it.

A typical MACC member is a mid-sized 501(c)3 human services organization located in the Twin Cities or 7-county metro area with a budget between $500K and $12 million.
