A group of panelists will be brought together to present some hypotheticals and discussion about the ethics of serving clients from community-based organizations.  \n\n\n\nThis CLE will be available online as a live webinar.

SUMMARY:Let's Go Legal! - Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Let’s Go Legal covers the five main topics board members need to know: State Law\, Federal Law\, Fundraising\, Employment\, and Intellectual Property. Let’s Go Legal shows how your organization is like a car. You need to register it with the state\, driving on federal roads involves an additional set of rules\, you need fuel to move your car forward (that’s the money part)\, the people in the car matter\, and the look and feel of your car make it special. It covers what you need to know about each of these topics and provides an easy checklist to make sure your organization covers it all. \n\n\n\nWe will take some deeper dives into nonprofit law topics along the way: by-laws and how to use them to strengthen your board practice\, advocacy and ways to grow your mission within the public sector. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nPresented in partnership with Washington Nonprofits and the Office of the Secretary of State.
