* Conference call on nonprofit furloughs: As part of the research for an upcoming article on nonprofit furloughs, we'd like to invite 20 nonprofit folk onto a conference call to discuss how you've implemented them, the unexpected impacts, and how your thinking has evolved as furloughs have been in place for several weeks or months. If you can participate on this call on Wednesday, December 16, at 11 am Pacific time, please click here and send us your email, name, title, organization and geographic location — all of which will be kept confidential. We'll send you the call-in information once we finalize the group.
