This article by the Dorothy A. Johnson Center for Philanthropy, 11 Trends in Philanthropy in 2025: The Nonprofit Workforce is in Crisis, underscores that investing in employee wellbeing is no longer optional but mission-critical, offering data, resources for frameworks, and examples that nonprofit leaders can use to build a sustainable, more resilient workforce.
