New Case Study Released 
  

El Centro de la Raza To inspire and inform new thinking and practice on effective volunteer engagement, Reimagining Service will be releasing a series of new case studies over the fall. Our second case study focusing on El Centro de la Raza is now available. El Centro de la Raza is a nonprofit in Seattle, Washington that has made a strong commitment to engaging different types of volunteers - skill-based, long-term, and community-based - and has positioned this human capital resource at the forefront of its social justice movement. In addition to the case study, there is a companion piece that illustrates how this nonprofit is exemplifying all eight service enterprise characteristics.
