CHAPTER SPOTLIGHT
Exploring Tough Topics With PEAK New England
PEAK New England launched monthly coffee hours this year. The topic of February's meeting—tipping, grassroots funding, and fiscal sponsors—led to a robust discussion and resulted in attendees sharing numerous resources and tactics to handle this sometimes complicated challenge. Topics for coffee hours range each month and are led by members. You won’t want to miss the next one.
Kudos to PEAK New England for leading the way!
