Nonprofit organisations are increasingly concerned with the need to
demonstrate how social justice principles impact every aspect of
their work. This is the only book to explicitly integrate social
justice principles into the management of a nonprofit organisation.
It provides students with the knowledge and skills required to
integrate a social justice value system into their work as
effective non-profit leaders. Using practical tips and illustrative
case examples, the text explains the structure and processes of
nonprofit organisations with a particular emphasis on social
justice themes. The book is edited by an interdisciplinary team of
prominent leaders in business, management, and social service, who
together run the Fordham Center for Nonprofit Leaders. They have
assembled a group of expert authors who provide extensive coverage
of the nonprofit leadership field. The book discusses the history
of the development of nonprofit management up to the present day.
It addresses legal and ethical considerations, organisational
planning and staff management, finance, public relations,
fundraising, public advocacy and volunteerism, program design and
grant development, governance and board development, developing an
international nonprofit, information technology, career
development, and creating a nonprofit/social entrepreneurship
organization. Additional chapters address quality improvement,
mentoring, and proposal writing, Included are plentiful case
studies and review questions in each chapter. The text is ideal for
students and faculty in social service administration, human
service leadership, social work management, public and community
health, public administration, and health care administration and
management.
SINCE I BECAME A TERRORIST TARGET.
Encounters and Dialogues
Do I have to remain just a bystander waiting for the next
terrorist attack?
People keep arguing with him about this question because he's a
nationally known volunteer leader. But how can he advise them about
what to do that would make a difference-when he himself doesn't
know what he can do that's important? But then, using a two
thousand-year-old model of what makes a society strong, this
charity leader starts recording and analyzing his encounters and
dialogues, hoping to find an action that people now can take to
strengthen their threatened country. And, at the same time, also
reduce the hatred against it.
He debates with business executives, street gang members, an
angry Muslim man, a young mother who's given up sex, a frightened
subway rider, an immigrant grandfather, college classmates at as
reunion, his wife, children, friends, and many others. Then in the
book's last section-twenty years into the future-as the Big War
grows throughout the world, he finally understands the contribution
he can make. But why does his plan risk sending him to jail?
