NGEC Theory of Social Change Guide
“Chronicles of Change: A Guide to an Organization’s Theory of Social Change”
NGEC believes that all social justice organizations are drivers of change and delivery agents of solutions in the social justice movement. As such, each should have a Theory of Social Change (TOSC) to be most effective and sustainable.
As part of the journey in the NGEC’s Organizational Fellowship Program (OFP), we developed this 80-page guide to help the cohort groups in our 3-year program through the larger process of defining or refining their organization’s role in the social justice movement. We believe that the combination of process and product makes a TOSC critical to organizational transformation. The activities detailed in this guide can help groups identify existing organizational assets and suggests ways to effectively engage organizational stakeholders in the TOSC development process.
