NPTalk Turns to NPAction; New Features Added

We wish to thank everyone who supported NPTalk during its first four years. We are pleased to announce NPTalk's integration with NPAction, OMB Watch's online resource for nonprofit advocacy.

NPAction, currently in its pilot phase, offers a wide range of policy information and tools. Please take a moment to include your organization in the Resource Directory, and explore our work to date. Your thoughts will help inform the official version of the site, slated for launch in Spring 2003.

After nearly four years of continuous e-mail based publication, a much broader base of existing and emerging nonprofit technology forums and resources are available. Our decision to take advantage of the new resources available through NPAction was prompted by the needs you each identified through our 2002 NPTalk readership survey, including a broader interest in resources and information on a variety of modes for engaging in policy and understanding policy processes, rather than a strict focus on nonprofit technology.

NPTalk itself will exist as an open forum on the site. We are also slowly (but surely) moving archived content from the NPTalk e-mail list into NPAction. NPAction will continue to highlight resources and practices involving use of technology in advocacy contexts as part of the site. Also, check out our other features, including:

We look forward to continuing our relationship with you through NPAction. Please continue to share information with us, pass word along to others, and help us develop a resource valuable to you and other groups in your policy engagement.
