Serving on a Non-Profit Board (CLE Panel)

Joining the board of a non-profit organization is a fulfilling way to uphold our professional responsibility as lawyers to serve and be involved in our communities. Finding and joining a board, however, can be a daunting task, particularly for young attorneys. Please join us in a panel discussion on serving on a non-profit board. Topics include:

• • Practical tips and considerations on finding and applying for a non-profit board membership that is right for you
  • Overview of the fiduciary duties and other responsibilities of a board member
  • Best practices on how to be an effective board member and to fulfill your duties.
