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

Greetings readers, and happy new year to you.

I’m pleased to present a thoughtful piece by a new writer, Jacob Garcia, profiling a small, struggling Boston nonprofit called Heal the Hood ([link removed]) —just one of thousands of scrappy and inspired efforts across the country that make up as much as three-quarters of our sector. Next, a reflection on what post-election narratives ([link removed]) reveal about the United States and how to counteract them. Then, a piece by our own Steve Dubb on Project 2025 ([link removed]) —a title that feels a little more daunting now—and its potential implications for economic and racial justice. Finally, we invite you to attend our upcoming Premium webinar, “AI for An Equitable World: How Your Organization Can Approach AI Responsibly.”

And wait—I almost forgot! The Leadership newsletter’s “Stat of the Week”:
