Board roles and responsibilities during challenging times

Presented virtually via zoom, this workshop will cover governance basics and participants will hear about best practices for all nonprofit boards as well as specific responsibilities of every board member. Because many nonprofits are facing unprecedented challenges, we will discuss the role of a board in the face of external obstacles. New or aspiring board members are the target audience, but more seasoned board members are welcome to participate.
