The Professional Organizers Blog Carnival typically features a particular area of organizing, such as Students and Time Management, Decision-Making, or Keeping up with Daily Life.

This month we instead look at a particular organizing challenge, Hoarding, and we’re honored to have as our sponsor Geralin Thomas, author of From Hoarding to Hope: Understanding People Who Hoard and How To Help Them.
