Capitolbeat RFI for Academic Partners

Members and friends:

This year, the Capitolbeat board has been considering how to manage the organization going forward. As you know, our long-time executive director moved on to a new job in January. While we were sad to see Tiffany go, the board took the opportunity to reassess our operational structure.

After much discussion, we have decided to see if it would be feasible to develop a relationship with an academic institution. Among other things, we’re hoping such a relationship would give us long-term organizational stability and allow your board to focus more of our energy on programs.

This is by no means a done deal. In fact, we’re just beginning to solicit input from potential partners.

Click here to read the RFI we will be sending out this week.  As you read through you’ll better understand our ambitions for how this relationship will work.

If you have suggestions about potential partners we should seek out, please let us know by e-mailing the board at board@capitolbeat.org.
