Summary:By April 2020, the United States had entered the early phase of the COVID-19 pandemic. We were observing the harrowing effects of the virus in China, Italy, and early hotspots in the United States. It was clear to us, as editors, that this crisis would upend traditional ways of operating in the public and nonprofit sectors. Once-clear administrative roles would be abandoned, and policies and procedures would be suspended, altered, or ignored to respond as nimbly as possible. The crisis has affected the private sector, individuals, families, schools, and-of course-the healthcare sector in ways that will be the subject of research for the ensuing decade and likely beyond.
