Since his inauguration, President Trump has signed dozens of executive orders covering a broad range of issues, including many that impact charitable nonprofits directly or indirectly. Some won’t take effect immediately and will be challenged in court.
This slew of Executive Orders are threatening the communities we serve, and nonprofits must be ready to prepare, respond, and advocate like never before.
This fight is going to be tough—but nonprofits are tougher. That’s why I’ve invited Bethany Snyder, MPP on to the podcast to discuss actionable steps your organization can take right now to push back and protect your mission.
