Now more than ever, hiring and retaining great workers is one of the biggest challenges we face as nonprofits. That’s why Common Good Vermont teams up with the New Hampshire Center for Nonprofits and Maine Association of Nonprofits every two years to collect the latest data on wages and benefits from our tri-state area. Each state produces a state-specific report on Wages and Benefits which tells an important and deeply informative story about the health and viability of our sector and best practices for you to assess as you make decisions in your own organization.
The 2024 Vermont Edition provides Vermont’s nonprofit professionals with salary and benefits benchmarks for the most common full and part-time positions from 196 Vermont nonprofits and 788 Northern New England nonprofits who contributed to the report’s data. This year’s report includes new data on equitable hiring practices, workforce demographics, short-term changes to our workforce, and shifts in remote work that will help organizations plan strategically for the future. While open to any 501(c) organization, the survey’s respondents were predominantly 501(c)3 public charities.
The 2024 digital report costs $200.

Vital Sector Trends: Timely information about nonprofit staffing and compensation is perhaps more important than ever.

Talent Matters: People power our missions and to attract and retain talent nonprofits need to set competitive wages and benefits.
