On October 8, City & State New York released 2018’s Nonprofit Power 50 List. In this special feature, City & State New York recognizes 50 top nonprofit leaders who are key players in the world of New York politics and government. CPD affiliate Executive Directors Jeremy Saunders and Alyssa Aguilera from VOCAL-NY, and Javier Valdés and Deborah Axt from Make the Road New York each made this impressive list.

City & State New York reached out to insiders and experts to compile this list of nonprofit leaders, ranking each individual based on their accomplishments, their sway in political and policy matters, their ties to powerful politicians, and their ability to deliver for the diverse populations they serve. We are incredibly proud to be in partnership with some of the most influential leaders in the New York nonprofit community. Read more about their achievements here.
