The last few
years have brought extraordinary challenges to non-profit
organizations in New Jersey and around the world. History
organizations in particular have suffered from the loss of in-person
programs and the ongoing health challenges for staff and visitors.
But where do we stand now? What are the current issues that face our
organizations and practitioners, and how can we support each other in
facing them?
In March of
2020, the New Jersey Historical Commission (NJHC) launched its first
COVID-19 Impact Survey to assess the impact of mandated closures. We
learned that 65% of history organizations were operating with budgets
under $100,000 before the virus and income losses forced them to rely
on relief funds. Despite the reality of difficult decision making,
the history community is resilient, and the best way forward is to
understand the key challenges confronting the field.
Please
join the NJHC on Tuesday, September 20th, 2022, at the New
Jersey State Museum to hear from statewide history service
organizations about our greatest challenges. Special guest Jennifer
Talansky of the Nonprofit Finance Fund will discuss the State
of the Sector: The Health of the Nation's Nonprofits — a report of
1,100 multi-disciplinary, national, nonprofit results. Please see the
agenda on our Eventbrite
page for more
details.
