TheĀ focus group session, moderated by former CRS research assistant, Tana Schiewer, identified four primary target areas for research and program development:

  • Managing email communication
  • Creating a compelling mission statement
  • Optimizing a social media presence
  • Developing productive collaboration

Tana subsequently developed a workshop on communication for area nonprofits, which she ran, with support from VT Engage, at the Capitol and Hampton Roads campuses.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
