Is there anything I can do if my full time job switches hours?

I signed on almost a year ago to work a full time position at a community center that is open 9am-8pm. My agreed upon hours as the manager were 9am-5:30pm as long as the evening hours were covered by 3 part time staff. We are undergoing some Director changes and because of this the program is being looked at with fresh eyes.

The reason this is such a problem for me (other than the obvious switcheroo they pulled, them going back on their word, and the obvious flaws to their logic) is that I have another part time job that I occasionally work in the evenings. I also sit on the board of a nonprofit and we tend to meet in the evenings.

Is there anything I can do to get them to keep me working during normal business hours? What would you do?
