Austin Young Nonprofit Professionals Network Kicks Off Fall Workshop Series Tonight

The Young Nonprofit Professionals Network (YNPN) is a national organization that brings together folks in the nonprofit sector for professional and social networking opportunities. Tonight, YNPN Austin hosts the first in its fall Professional Development Speaker Series: led by Toastmaster members Nathalie Sorrell and Jim Walsh, the event -- entitled "How to Talk to a Roomful of People and Do It Well" -- aims to offer you some helpful tips for successfully delivering a public address, and looks to be a good chance to meet others involved in various arts, health and human services, advocacy efforts, education and other social causes.

Nathalie Sorrell and Jim Walsh mastered their public speaking fears through Toastmasters International (www.toastmasters.org), an organization devoted to improving communication and leadership skills of its members. Nathalie is also involved as a co-founder in a nonprofit called Truth Be Told, an organization dedicated to helping female prisoners tell their stories. Jim is an active volunteer in the initiative, as well as an attorney with a local law firm representing public school districts.
