Peter Brinkerhoff on the Campbell Conversations

Since the Great Recession, non-profit organizations have struggled to get the resources that they need, and many have failed.  They’ve also had to adapt to new technology, which has changed the ways that people want to give, and raised their expectations of transparency.  This week on the Campbell Conversations Grant Reeher discusses those challenges with Peter Brinkerhoff, an expert on non-profit organizations and their management, and the author of several award-winning books in the non-profit field.

Grant Reeher is a Political Science Professor and Senior Research Associate at the Campbell Public Affairs Institute at Syracuse University's Maxwell School of Citizenship. He is also creator, host and program director of “The Campbell Conversations” on WRVO, a weekly regional public affairs program featuring extended in-depth interviews with regional and national writers, politicians, activists, public officials, and business professionals.
