episode 1: Mission-Driven Multi-Tasking: Paying the Bills and Mobilizing Communities to Power Queer and Trans Movements
Jack Beck is the Founder and Executive Director of TurnOut, a nonprofit dedicated to mobilizing communities to power queer and trans movements. TurnOut works year-round to recruit volunteers, staff, and board members for queer and trans nonprofits, providing the training and support they need to maximize their impact in CA communities. In his interview, Jack shares his experiences starting a nonprofit, how their programs and offerings grew organically, their path to sustainability, and valuable lessons that he learned along the way about how to treat volunteers like the important assets they are.
