Presentation & Continental Breakfast at 8:00
Networking at 9:30

BoardSource’s The Policy Sampler, A Resource for Nonprofit Boards defines policy as “an idea that is embodied in a written document, is ratified by legitimate authority, and serves as a guide to action. The major policies of a nonprofit organization are created and ratified by its board of directors, are (or should be) written down in a policy manual for easy reference, are (or should be) reviewed frequently to see if they are up to date, and cover every aspect of the organization’s business.”

Using this framework for defining and understanding policies, this presentation will delve into the various financial policies, ethics policies, personnel policies, board-specific policies, and public relations policies that every nonprofit needs.
