About this event
Join us for the January 2018 convening of the Ventura County Nonprofit Leadership Council on Wednesday, January 17 from 11:30 a.m. – 1:30 p.m.
This Town Hall format will focus on issues and trends facing the nonprofit community in our region. Come make your voices heard and hear the insights and perspectives from your colleagues and peers. The session will begin with a moderated response panel of local nonprofit leaders followed by a facilitated discussion among all who attend. The discussion will be a continuation of the dialogue that began last spring with the sneak preview of the State of the Region Study, published by the Ventura County Civic Alliance.
Special thanks to Manufacturers Bank for generously sponsoring lunch and underwriting the registration fees for this important discussion!
