Find A Consultant

The Association of Consultants to Nonprofits is the Chicago area's premier meeting ground for nonprofits and the consultants who support them. 

View detailed online profiles of ACN's member consultants.  You'll find consultants who are experienced in a wide variety of areas.  You can search for consultants by practice category, business name or by name.  You can also search by key word just as you would search any online search engine.

Our goal is to insure that Chicago's nonprofit community benefits from the best possible professional services from our members. All profile materials are provided by the individual members. ACN therefore does not assume responsibility for the contents of the profile listings, nor does it guarantee the performance of its members.

ACN offers its member consultants educational and professional growth opportunities and strives to assure that its members provide first-rate services to their nonprofit clients under the aegis of a fully professional code.

Review our handy guide to choosing a consultant.  You'll find additional articles and information about selecting a consultant in the Resources section of the site.
