New Book by Independent Sector President Emeritus Brian O?Connell

Fifty Years in Public Causes: Stories From A Road Less Traveled is the new book by Independent Sector co-founder Brian O?Connell. It traces a lifetime of organizing, beginning at the local level and extending to national and international crusades. A dynamic activist and inspiring teacher, O’Connell passes along his experiences for volunteers, staff and young people with a passion for building public causes. O?Connell ends with the lessons he would emphasize for the nonprofit sector if it were possible to continue on this road less traveled another fifty years.

The book is published by Tufts University Press, where O’Connell is founder and professor of public service at the University College of Citizenship and Public Service. Visit http://www.50yearsbook.com/ for book details, excerpts and ordering information.
