Nonprofit Management Alliance of Texas
Welcome to the Nonprofit Management Alliance of Texas (NMAT). Our vision is that the Texas nonprofit sector is the best in the country because all nonprofits in the state have access to high quality affordable management and governance strengthening services.
NMAT was formed in response to a multi-year study by the George Bush School at Texas A&M University which revealed the need for more formal networks and alliances to increase coordination and communication across the nonprofit sector. The Bush School study was released in four phases and all report content may be downloaded below:
Phase One: Mapping Nonprofit Infrastructure Organizations in Texas
Phase Two: Survey of Texas Nonprofit Organizations Final Report
Phase Three: TNMAN Transition Needs Assessment and Social Network Analysis Final Report
Phase Four: Mapping the Nonprofit Infrastructure Final Report
In late 2010, OneStar, with financial support from The Meadows Foundation, formed an advisory group with representation from foundations, university research departments, nonprofit resource centers and other experts from the nonprofit sector to guide the formation of the Alliance.
