This teaching strategy brings real experiences into the classroom and highlights the diversity of ethical, organizational, governance, and leadership challenges commonly faced in the sector.  

The text is organized to support multiple audiences. First, faculty seeking a supplemental learning tool for core themes in nonprofit education can easily identify cases designed to highlight critical issues students will be intrigued by. The second audience is the student; the creative key evidence sections and easy reading style approach make each case welcoming for the reader.
