Outplacement Services for Nonprofit Organizations
Workforce transitions in nonprofit organizations are uniquely sensitive. Layoffs, restructures, and program changes affect employees, donors, boards, volunteers, and the communities you serve. How those transitions are handled directly influences trust, reputation, and long-term mission credibility.
Relevante delivers outplacement services designed specifically for nonprofit organizations. We help you support impacted employees with dignity while maintaining operational stability, stakeholder confidence, and mission continuity.
Our programs deploy quickly, remain hands-on through placement, and give leadership clear visibility without increasing the burden on HR teams.

Leah D.
Holocaust Council Coordinator and Administrative Assistant
I began working with Relevante after I was laid off from my job in June. They walked me through the process they use to get people placed and explained everything perfectly. They helped me overhaul my LinkedIn profile and my resume. They also taught me how to write an effective cover letter as well as crucial interview skills. They were with me throughout the entire process of me applying and interviewing for my current job. With their help, I applied, interviewed, and was hired within one month in a job in my field. I owe my success to Relevante showing me how best to market myself. Thank you for all of your hard work, Relevante!
Erik H.
Product Marketing Specialist
This was my first experience with outplacement services, when my position was eliminated due to a department restructure. Relevante was there for me immediately to help motivate me and get me back on my feet, providing the advice and the practical assistance I needed to land an offer for a new position at a new company within 30 days. Relevante's first steps were setting me up with some interview advice and practice to help me become more comfortable interviewing in case a position I had already applied to got back to me. We then turned our attention to my resume and used the principles of storytelling to pull out the actual impact that my position made on the company's goals that I had worked for. With a new resume and interview skills in hand, we developed my LinkedIn presence and helped extend my connections and network by over 100 new connections in the month time. With my professional presence established, I was prepared for the series of interviews for multiple positions that I received and was able to successfully land an offer with one of these companies in less than 30 days of unemployment. Thanks to Relevante's help, I am proud to say that I exceeded my own personal goals and am excited for my next chapter and will recommend Relevante to anyone who needs that career help!

Lead Clinic Coordinator
Relevante was such a huge help to me when my job was suddenly eliminated. My resume wasn’t updated in years, and I didn’t know the first thing about LinkedIn. They took the time and helped me every step of the way until I found the perfect position. Again, I thank you!!
Meredith M.
Director of Compliance
I was connected with Relevante after I was laid off. I wasn’t sure what to expect but can easily say my expectations were exceeded. Relevante assisted me with updating my LinkedIn profile, my resume, and provided valuable insight on ways I could navigate through this trying job market. Thanks to Relevante's guidance and valuable insight, I went from receiving auto rejections or no responses to my applications to increased activity, which led to many interviews with various organizations. I would recommend Relevante to anyone in transition or looking to level up their resume and professional profile.
