Brave Commitments is a group of nearly 50 nonprofit executives committed to strengthening and sustaining the nonprofit system that supports children, youth and families in Washington State. Non-profit agencies have made the brave commitment to speak in a united, collaborative voice to urge governmental entities to fully fund the crucial services they provide. Throughout Washington, communities depend on nonprofit organizations to serve unmet needs: safe places, after-school programs, counseling, food security, housing stability, behavioral health, foster care enhancements, youth development and mentoring. These organizations are under stress and strain.
