STARTING A NON-PROFIT: THE NUTS AND BOLTS

Lachlan Youngs

This teach-in will consider the various types of non-profits, including
public lobbies, foundations, and charities, as well as nuts-and-bolts
non-profits that provide direct services to the public (such as affordable
housing, alternative medicine, and ground-up job training). It will also
focus on how the formation of non-profits helps the public lobby and protest
movements. The program will also include a discussion of what it's like to
be developing and working for a non-profit that provides open-structured
learning environments for adults.

Lachlan Youngs is a volunteer peer worker who teaches ceramics, beaded
jewelry, and modern music in an open-structured learning environment for
adults.  He directs "The Cape Workshop Collaborative", a Federal Non-Profit
Charity.
