We all have learned skills to build assumptions that reliably helped us predict the next year or two for our organizations.

This webinar will explore how to assess your current and future financial positions by developing new scenario and contingency plans for your organizations. The webinar will provide techniques and approaches to having practical conversations critical to organizational decision making, while also providing analytical tools to assist in gauging the risks to your income and the flexibility of your expenses.

An increasing number of states and localities are implementing laws that provide employees with benefits such as paid sick leave, family and medical leave, and/or disability benefits. As a result, nonprofits are increasingly likely to be faced with the challenging tasks of not only complying with these laws, but also determining how these entitlements intersect with the leave, wage replacement benefits, and health insurance provided by the organization. These tasks have become even more complex during the pandemic, because many nonprofits have changed from an in-person work model to a remote work model, thereby increasing the number of applicable jurisdictions.
Join Venable LLP for a valuable discussion as they examine several key considerations nonprofits should take into account as they approach coordinating benefits for employees with medical issues, who need to care for a sick family member, or who need time to bond with a new child. This presentation will address federal, state, and local paid and unpaid leave laws, wage replacement benefits (including short-term and long-term disability and workers’ compensation), and healthcare coverage. Panelists will provide insight and a best practices approach for your nonprofit organization in addressing this complex topic.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is more aggressive than ever. OSHA is issuing more subpoenas for documents and testimony, and making more criminal referrals now than in recent memory. This webinar will provide employers a discussion of changes that have already taken place and what else to expect from OSHA, the agency charged with protecting America’s workforce, over the next year. Some topics will include OSHA National Emphasis Programs (NEP), inspection tactics, proposed rules, and recordkeeping and reporting.
Join the Fisher Phillips Workplace Safety Practice Group leaders, Todd Logsdon and Travis Vance, as well as Kristin White and Steve Alvarado, in this virtual discussion as they walk through what safety and OSHA developments to expect.
The firm will be submitting this program for HRCI and SHRM credit.

The regulatory landscape governing how your nonprofit must protect its data and what it needs to do in the event of a breach is constantly shifting. With new privacy laws in multiple states—including most notably Colorado—and greater focus on privacy at the federal level, nonprofits need to develop policies and procedures to meet these emerging privacy obligations. Data security also remains a top compliance priority, and nonprofits must continue to ensure that their members’ and donors’ information is safeguarded. Our panelists will address new developments with regard to data protection and discuss best practices for addressing data breaches when they do occur.

Restricted gifts and endowments play an important role in enabling nonprofits to address specific needs and provide for their short- and long-term financial health and stability. In this session, learn about key legal concepts, strategic decisions, and practical advice related to the procurement, use, and management of restricted and endowed funds. The discussion will include real examples of ways in which nonprofits have been aided and, in some cases, limited by the terms governing restricted funds, and how you can best position your organization to reap the benefits of these forms of charitable support.
SECURE 2.0, major legislation impacting 403(b), 401(k), and other tax-favored plans containing over 90 provisions, was enacted on December 29, 2022.

When done properly, this effort can serve to enhance the value of membership and the public impression of the association’s industry or profession. However, this practice can carry legal risk if the proper procedures are not followed. Join us for this webinar as we share:

Are you concerned about political or cultural conflict and less tolerance seeping into your organization? Join us for an important webinar where we will discuss strategies for navigating these difficult situations.
Nonprofit workplaces are not immune from polarization in American society. Cultural conflicts, or as we call them cultural flashpoints, are on the rise, whether stemming from politics, current events, or international affairs. Those conflicts may intersect with protected classifications such as religion, race, LGBTQ+ identity and national origin. These trends will only accelerate in an election year. Nonprofits need effective strategies to lower the temperature, ensure compliance with the law, and stay focused on their mission. There has been an outpouring of response to this topic, so this webinar is free to attend. Reserve your spot today!
