The nonprofit and philanthropic communities are important contributors to well informed policies for all residents of our state. Nonprofits and philanthropy are essential partners with the government in ensuring a strong quality of life for everyone, and our voices in public policy are more vital than ever. Join us for this inaugural policy forum convening nonprofit and philanthropic leaders and allies. We’ll discuss current and emerging nonprofit and philanthropic policy issues, the State budget, voter engagement, and ways we can all become more involved.
