Personal and cultural reflections, plus the District of Columbia and some Esperanto
Unincorporated churches?
Review this map. (Note that the District of Columbia is colored in.) And now think about church growth. The title is a big hint to where I’m heading.
More later.

The title of the illustration led me to a fruitful perusal of various online legal resources. Thanks for the tip, and I look forward to seeing what you have to say about this topic. (Too bad California hasn’t gotten on this particular legal bandwagon yet.)
Ah, Dan, I was tempted to entitle the post, “You can’t spell the Uniform Unincorporated Nonprofit Association Act (UUNAA) without UU” but that would be a bit twee, no?
As it happens, California is a special case, but when isn’t it? The issue was raised in 2004 and 2005 for California to adopt the UUNAA.
California does have a unincorporated nonprofit association act, but it isn’t the uniform act. Really, that makes it a consideration of its own — especially since its population (11.95% of the whole U.S.) puts it in the same ballpark as all these states combined (20.35%)
