In this webinar, we discuss CAPLAW’s updated Sample Record Retention Policy and the types of organizational documents that it covers, how to choose appropriate record retention periods, and how the policy promotes good governance practices. An effective record retention policy helps staff, board members, and volunteers manage a CAA’s records to ensure that documents are stored and maintained properly prior to their destruction.
