It’s time for our next Blue Avocado Poll. Does your organization rely on federal funding? Are you discussing the possible budget cuts at the federal level? What are your contingency plans? Please take a minute to tell us what you are seeing, and we’ll share what we learn in the next issue. (Responses are all anonymous.)
Beyond the multiple-choice questions, we also invite you to tell us your stories about the potential effect of funding cuts for your organization. Sharing your contact information is totally optional, but if you do, we’ll follow up to find out more and plan content for Blue Avocado that can help.
We are being threatened on three fronts, two federal funding sources for housing and AmeriCorps. I think that things that is so maddening is now we have to pause and fight for the funding, while our critical mission work will get put on the back burner.
