** Leadership
------------------------------------------------------------

Greetings, readers!

For this week’s Leadership newsletter, we examine the ways nonprofit and philanthropic organizations can best prepare for today’s unpredictable legal and political climate.

First, the Council on Foundations issued a call for philanthropic groups to sign a statement of resistance and solidarity on April 9. Since then, nearly 400 organizations have signed. But what does this mean for the sector ([link removed]) ? Next, philanthropy is famously risk averse. But in times of crisis like today, philanthropic leaders interested in social justice must pursue their missions very differently ([link removed]) . Then, an analysis of the March 17th effective shut down of the US Institute of Peace, an independent nonprofit—and how other nonprofits are preparing for possible future attacks ([link removed]) . Finally, in times of social and political unrest, nonprofits play an essential role in strengthening democracy
through civic engagement ([link removed]) .

As always, we welcome feedback. Please feel free to email us at [email protected] (mailto:[email protected]) .
