In my experience, nonprofit workforce issues are structural. A lack of flexible, unrestricted core funding prevents organizations from increasing salaries to market standards, or even just indexing to inflation. Larger system failures (the inability to help) result in burnout and compassion fatigue.

Similarly, @imaginecanada.bsky.social recently released People First: A Portrait of Canada's Nonprofit Workforce. Their research noted that (predominantly female and racialized) nonprofit employees are compensated 13% less than other workers. imaginecanada.ca/sites/defaul...
