Thanks to everyone who attended the September 28th meeting in Fairlee to think together about how to strengthen Vermont's nonprofit sector. We covered quite a bit of ground and made significant progress towards identifying common needs, concerns and hopes.

We're making available the following materials from that meeting:

• an executive summary of the conference report
• the results from the "Vermont Nonprofit Capacity Building Needs" survey, which was completed by over 300 individuals
• a copy of the presentation on possible statewide models

We encourage you to share these materials, as well as your own experiences, thoughts and ideas from the meeting with your peers who could not attend the meeting.

We will keep you updated on the next steps in this ongoing process. In the meantime, please continue to share your thoughts with us.
