Measuring the Impact of the Nonprofit Sector de Patrice Flynn

Measuring the Impact of the Nonprofit Sector: Nonprofit and Civil Society Studies

Patrice Flynn

Virginia A. Hodgkinson

Renowned scholars present chapters on the state of the art of performance measurement in the nonprofit sector and seek to establish a framework for a long-term research agenda to identify, quantify, and self-assess those qualities that make the nonprofit sector unique.
