Webinar: Creating a culture of generosity

Sometimes houses of worship and nonprofits rise to the occasion for a singular fund-raiser or building campaign, and this is commendable.

Although board positions are non-compensated, they play a valuable (and legally-mandated) role in the life of a church. Training equips them to succeed. This webinar is for pastors, church administrators, board members and other leaders who would benefit from an understanding of the key roles and responsibilities of church boards.

Webinar: Workplace violence mandates for California's nonprofit sector

Churches and nonprofit organizations are familiar with the threat of violence breaking out during worship services or public events. A new California law, however, requires them to look at violence through the lens of the workplace. Senate Bill 553, signed into law Sept. 30, 2023, mandates businesses, churches and other nonprofits comply by July 1, 2024. While these organizations aren’t typically thought of as workplaces, they are places of employment subject to labor laws.
