One of the Workshop’s key events each year since 1993, our conference is designed for nonprofit communicators: volunteers and staff who are responsible for telling their group’s story through the news media or other channels. We bring them together with journalists looking for stories ‘off the beaten path’ and invite them to join in a dialogue on how to produce news that matters.

Go beyond job searching on LinkedIn–find out how your nonprofit can use this powerful tool to tell your organization’s story. Bryan has helped thousands of nonprofits improve how they operate by utilizing new online platforms. Last spring Bryan joined LinkedIn to launch their LinkedIn Nonprofit Solutions program.
