From the American Society of Association Executives 
 
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and closures, nearly every sector of the American economy has struggled to meet basic expenses such as payroll and rent, necessitating unprecedented legislative relief measures from the U.S. Congress. To date, however, and despite their critical importance to the industries and professions that drive economic growth, nonprofit associations remain one of the few sectors of the economy left without a financial safety net during this crisis. This document is intended to correct misconceptions about nonprofit associations and their purpose and function in the economy and society at large.
