Dear Friends and Neighbors,
Past discussions in our community have been ongoing and passionate about the social sectors. While commitment and hard work run deep, are we seeing continuous improvement?
We must ask ourselves “Once we see continuous improvement of a social issue, will new doors be opened in our future?” I firmly believe they will. However, this will require a paradigm shift.

Transforming Our Anti-Social Sector
Our sector’s trajectory does not point to a pivotal future role in solving social problems—what might a new paradigm look like, and could we ever get there?

"That the nonprofit sector has changed hugely in recent years is beyond dispute. It has grown, become increasingly professionalized, and over the last decade started coming to grips with planning and measuring its impact. Yet these are incremental changes, and I believe that the sector’s trajectory does not point to a pivotal future role in solving social problems and delivering social justice."
