April Webinar

Six Critical Policies for Nonprofits
Thursday, April 13, 2023
1:30-3:00 PM ET

Concerned about the governance of your organization? Take a renewed look at six critical policies that help your organization function safely and effectively.

Nonprofits have traditionally paid attention to conflict of interest policies, whistleblower policies, and document retention and destruction policies. Organizations pay attention, in large part, because the IRS asks about these policies on the Form 990 tax return. But these policies are critical in ensuring that the organization protects itself from wrong-doing and criticism that would undermine its ability to promote its mission. Potential donors, members of the media, regulators, and careful job seekers will have greater confidence when an organization responds “yes” to the policy questions on the 990.

Nonprofit bylaw review

Don Kramer will review and comment on your own current or proposed bylaws

Do your Bylaws reflect the way you actually operate? Do they protect the interests of those who should be protected? Do they spell out clearly how to deal with governance issues? Or do they create uncertainty for those who have to implement them?

Most nonprofits don't spend a lot of time looking at their Bylaws until there is a question or a dispute. That's when you need bylaws that are clear and unambiguous, so your questions on how to proceed are already answered. That's when bad bylaws can lead to unnecessary controversies or even costly litigation. Nonprofit Issues editor Don Kramer will review your current or proposed Bylaws to see if they work for you.
