In an era of increased government oversight and decreased public confidence, nonprofit corporation leaders have a new resource at Rutgers University-Newark.
At a conference yesterday, the school announced the formation of an academic center that will offer courses, research and consulting services to help nonprofits weather these challenging times. Housed in the School of Business, the new Center for Nonprofit and Philanthropic Leadership is intended to strengthen, study and support the state's active nonprofit sector, which includes more than 25,000 health care, educational, arts and social service agencies, as well as foundations that fund their work.
