This program explores common legal and operational challenges faced by small nonprofits, particularly charities-in the areas of governance, stewardship of charitable assets, tax and fundraising compliance, employment law and workforce management-and uses practical examples to illustrate effective ways of addressing these challenges. The panelists have filled roles within nonprofit organizations in both legal and operational capacities and currently represent nonprofits as outside counsel. They share their real-world insights from these multiple perspectives.
