At the heart of every nonprofit and charity organization lies its bylaws, policies, procedures - and its incorporation or charity status. These foundational legal frameworks govern what nonprofits can do and what rules they must follow, and so it’s crucial to understand their inner workings.
During this webinar, you’ll hear from C. Yvonne Chenier, K.C., Legal Counsel for IntegralOrg and experienced charity lawyer, as she provides a high-level introduction to the important tools that govern your nonprofit or charity.
Some topics that are covered:
• The differences, limits, and relationships between bylaws, policies, procedures, and your nonprofit’s incorporation or charity status.
• Common bylaw elements and the basics of managing, drafting, and changing your bylaws.
• The limitations of your governing rules as it applies to organizations under a variety of nonprofit and charity legislation.
