Attend PANO’s Inclusion by Design 2.0: Our Collective Mosaic Conference

By

The Alliance for Nonprofit Resources, the Community Action Association of Pennsylvania and the Pennsylvania Association of Nonprofit Organizations (PANO) are partnering once again for their 2018 Collaborative Conference Inclusion by Design 2.0: Our Collective Mosaic – on October 4 and 5 in State College, PA.

This year, the conference will host Vu Le as its keynote speaker on Thursday, October 4. Vu Le, author of blog Nonprofit AF and Executive Director of Rainier Valley Corps, will focus his talk on Inclusion, Social Justice, and Unleashing the Full Potential of the Nonprofit Sector.

On Friday, October 5, the conference welcomes Pennsylvania’s top political commentators to provide a breakdown of the 2018 midterm elections. Given the social and political tension sweeping our nation since the 2016 election cycle and considering the redrawing of Pennsylvania’s U.S. House of Representatives map for 2018, they have assembled a panel of experts to help us untangle the intricacies of this year’s general election matchups and the impact these midterm results will have on state and national policy making.

Workshop tracks also include:

  • Communications: tips, tools and practice to create improve communication plans, storytelling, social media strategy, and more
  • Community Action: the latest and greatest developments and updates specifically geared toward community action agencies across PA
  • Leadership Development: tips, tools and practice for staff at all levels of leadership, from interns and front-line staff, to executive directors and board chairs, to optimize performance
