Launched in 2021, the National Survey of Nonprofit Trends and Impacts is a multiyear panel study conducted by the Urban Institute in collaboration with American University and George Mason University. Discussions about this initiative began in 2015, with input from the Association for Research on Nonprofit Organizations and Voluntary Action (ARNOVA) and numerous scholars across the nation. This nationally representative study investigates various aspects of nonprofit organizations, including programs and services, staffing and volunteerism, fundraising, donations, financial health, and government engagement. The insights aim to help nonprofit leaders establish sustainable and effective organizations and provide guidance to policymakers, funders, and the public to enhance support for the nonprofit sector.
Researchers interested in the arts and cultural sector can identify arts and cultural 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations using the "nteecc_3code" variable, which is based on the National Taxonomy of Exempt Entities (NTEE) codes found in the June 2024 IRS Exempt Organizations Business Master File.
