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

Greetings, readers! This week’s Leadership newsletter offers a few reminders of the need for societal leadership by the nonprofit and philanthropic sectors. First, Massachusetts is the only state in the union to guarantee a “Right to Shelter” to homeless families—or it was until the state’s governor effectively halted the program ([link removed]) this summer while desperate families take to the streets. Then, Ted Siefer gives an overview of what nonprofits can do (spoiler, it’s a lot) to engage voters ([link removed]) . Then, Giving USA’s annual report on charitable giving shows a modest but potentially worrisome decline in overall giving ([link removed]) . Finally, for co-ops, digitalization while maintaining their values
([link removed]) calls for careful integration, with a focus on building human relationships.

Feedback? Pitches? Ideas? Just want to say hello? Please don’t hesitate to email NPQ’s Leadership desk editor at [email protected].
