Resource Development Strategy and Revenue Diversification

1) An assessment of The Arc of California's current revenue model and development capacity, including strengths, vulnerabilities, existing assets and potential gaps.
2) A prioritized set of revenue diversification opportunities, with rationale and preliminary feasibility considerations. Opportunities may include institutional philanthropy, individual giving, major gifts, corporate partnerships and sponsorships, earned revenue, and other mission-aligned funding strategies.
3) Facilitation of a 90-minute Resource Development Task Force kickoff meeting in October 2026, either virtually or in person, to review findings, engage Task Force members in strategic discussion, and establish initial revenue development priorities.
4) A summary of findings, Task Force discussion and recommended priorities that can serve as the foundation for the organization's next phase of resource development planning.

The volunteer will participate in approximately two preparation meetings with key staff/leadership, review relevant organizational and financial materials, and facilitate the 90-minute Task Force kickoff meeting.

Estimated project period: September–October 2026.
