What’s a HUB?

New for the NPC in 2009 are HUB events (Host. Unify. Blend.) Organized collaboratively by two or more NPC organizations, they provide a regular forum for members and other guests to socialize, communicate, learn about and connect with one another. Each HUB will have a different program – from a speaker on a regional issue, to nonprofit skill building, to speed networking and more. We hope to see you at our next event! Learn about our first HUB.

VALUE STATEMENT

The NPC provides a unique value to the Pittsburgh region by being the only collaboration of regional organizations dedicated to:

• Being a central point of access and communication to and for young adult organizations across 10 counties
• Promoting and supporting member organizations to the region-at-large and leveraging resources by facilitating partnerships among them.
• Providing regional leadership opportunities, experiences and networking connections to young adults to better affect regional change and progress.

By doing so, the NPC continually builds and strengthens a broad, dynamic network that connects young professionals to community and regional development initiatives throughout southwestern Pennsylvania.
