Abstract
Similarly, Yannick mentioned "the role of donors, foundations, and other powerful stakeholders/actors/texts in nonprofit advocacy", noting that "in general, we know much less about how nonprofit networks evolve/adapt/operate in various contexts, and how to make them work effectively." This special issue seeks to elevate eclectic voices and research agendas to inspire greater engagement with and contributions to nonprofit and voluntary organizational (NPVO) scholarship from inside and outside the communication discipline. From examining nonprofits' collaborative patterns, networking strategies, the various tensions and obstacles involved in collaborative endeavors, to nonprofit partnership management and many other topics, NPVO communication scholarship has yielded some great insights and lessons for practitioners and scholars. In sum, there is an important need for greater focus on nonprofits as workplaces and to examine nonprofit (volunteer) workers' activism, resistance, and struggle around work/labor conditions within the nonprofit sector.
