Robin Kelley, PhD , D-Cals, NMAC, Washington, DC
In an environment with constant organizational upheaval due to new policies and funding streams, change is the only constant.  More and more, non-profit administrators and health care providers are being called upon to increase productivity with decreasing resources. In these changing times, premiums will be placed on organizations that can react and move quickly in response to changing conditions and pressures.  Particularly in the arena of public health, specifically regarding HIV/AIDS Prevention and Treatment services, the impact of Health Care Reform will cause community-based organizations (CBO) and AIDS Service Organizations (ASO), to face a new reality.  In order to remain sustainable, these organizations must systematically and efficiently address, implement, and institutionalize change.

The driver behind this change is the organizations leadership and their ability to lead transformation successfully.  NMAC believes an effective change leadership plan will address the areas of organizational leadership, adaptability, and program capacity, which can lead to organizational sustainability.
