Nonprofit Professional in the Spotlight
It's the end of the year, and we wanted to take the time to highlight the wonderful work of three nonprofit professionals working at three very different organizations.
Leah Hudson is the Coordinator of Education and Training at Southern Tier Hospice and Palliative Care. Learn more about her and her work.
Christine McLear is a sexuality educator at Planned Parenthood. Learn more about her and her work.
Lori Payne is the Program Coordinator for the Kids' Adventure Club Program at Pathways, Inc. Learn more about her and her work.

We are always amazed at the dedication and passion that nonprofit professionals in our region bring to their work, and look forward to highlighting more in the new year.

Help with Doctoral Research Project
The Institute for Human Services is helping to connect a doctoral researcher in the School of Human Services at Capella University with community-based nonprofit organizations across South Central New York. His research study - entitled "Cashing Out: Fund Development Director Turnover in Nonprofit Organizations" is looking at turnover intent within nonprofits, specifically the positions held by development professionals. Dr. Ray Borges is supervising the research project and we encourage you and/or your development team to participate in the research study here.

For more information or to contact the researcher, Brian McConnell, email at bmcconnell2@capellauniversity.edu. Please also contact the researcher directly for a a copy of the informed consent form for your records. Thank you for your help.
