Do you work for a nonprofit affected by the shutdown? Perhaps it’s a matter of suspended funding. Or maybe you’re already hearing from people with needs that would otherwise be met by a fully functioning state government.

If you’d like to share your experiences directly with readers, you can do it in the comments section below. If you’d rather speak confidentially, please use the simple and secure form I’ve created by following this link. No detail is too small. What you share will help guide MinnPost’s coverage of the shutdown.

Update: Thanks to everybody who has contacted us through the form so far. If you don’t work for a nonprofit, but you know somebody who does, please pass this link along!
