Town Halls for Nonprofits

In anticipation of the Nonprofit Congress June 1 - 4 in Washington, DC, statewide nonprofit associations are convening town hall meetings at the local level. Earlier this week, I was part of the town hall meeting convened by the Montana Nonprofit Association in Bozeman. Our discussion focused on three priorities for the Nonprofit Congress:

• Organizational effectiveness,
  
• Advocacy for the sector, and
  
• Building public awareness and support for the sector.

The New Hampshire Center for Nonprofits piloted The Primary Project to engage presidential candidates in talking about the nonprofit sector. See the video report.
