250 years ago, the United States of America officially declared its independence. As we step into this year, we’re finding inspiration in The Communications Network’s article, A Call to Action for Foundation & Nonprofit Communicators in 2026. The article dives deeper into the following principles.
We’re No Longer Just Storytellers. We’re Stewards of Truth.
We Have to Build Bridges Without Erasing Our Values.
Broadcasting Is Over. Convening Is the Work.
Social and AI Are Now How People Decide What’s True.
Trust Travels Through People, Not Logos.
Internal Communications Is Where Credibility Is Won or Lost.
Communications Leadership Is Organizational Leadership.
We are all communicators, and we all have a role to play in supporting our communities in this moment. Indiana Humanities has compiled resources to support 250th-related programs, available here.
Here’s what else is ahead in today’s newsletter:
