Pay-for-Success Financing: An Overview

December 7, 2015

What is pay for success, who uses it, and how? How many pay-for-success deals have been negotiated or are in the works? Some people consider this form of investment in the charitable sector promising, but it remains untested on a broad basis. So why hasn’t it caught on faster?

Panelists:

Connie Malloy, program director, James Irvine Foundation, who oversees the foundation’s Pay for Success Initiative, a partnership with the Nonprofit Finance Fund to test a new approach to paying for social services, with the goal of improving results while reducing costs.
