New EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR Named

On July 21^st, the Men’s Resource Center for Change welcomed James Sheehan of Boston's North Shore as its new Executive Director. Jim brings to the E.D.’s chair a solid commitment to the founding principles of the MRC as well as decades of experience in non-profit management, including a strong set of skills in development and program innovation.

“It should take little argument to convince us all that men, as a gender, are in pain these days,” Jim says. “Our natural capacities for generativity, intimacy and ecstasy have been both devalued and mocked over so many years and generations. This has left us often failing in our relationship and relying on force to create our places in the world.”

We welcome Jim to the MRC with confidence in the future and renewed dedication to our vision of a world where men and women work together to challenge violence, promote equality and bring peace and harmony to our homes and our communities.

VOICE MALE has a new publisher.

Here is an exciting update regarding VOICE MALE magazine.
This summer’s issue will be the last published by the Men’s Resource Center for Change.   As of July 1st, Rob Okun, who has been the magazine's editor for the past 11 years, will also now publish the magazine.   Rob, as you know, is stepping down on June 30^th as MRC Executive Director as he steps up as the Chair of the MRC’s National Advisory Board.   And though VOICE MALE will no longer be a publication of the MRC in Amherst, we intend to maintain a close relationship with it.   So, to all our existing subscribers, please rest assured that there will be no change in the status for the term of your current subscription.

We wish to express our deepest gratitude for our readers’ support of the MRC, and assure you we look forward with excitement to the continuation of the VOICE MALE legacy.   We are confident that, in Rob’s hands, the magazine will maintain its tradition of sharp, insightful reporting and commentary on the evolving condition of men in our society, and further develop its position as one of the outstanding publications of the progressive men’s movement.
