Join us for Part 3 of the 3‑part series offer­ing non­prof­it pro­fes­sion­als an intro­duc­tion to essen­tial busi­ness and legal con­cepts that can strength­en their orga­ni­za­tions. Each ses­sion will fea­ture a pan­el of expe­ri­enced pro­fes­sion­als from the legal and busi­ness worlds to pro­vide a high-lev­el overview of these key top­ics, fol­lowed by a ques­tion and answer session:

• March 20^th: Risk Man­age­ment for Nonprofits

Legal 101 for Non­prof­its
May 22^nd, 9:30 – 11:00 am
Teton Coun­ty Library, 125 Vir­gin­ian Ln, Jack­son, WY 83001

A pan­el dis­cus­sion with: Andrew Apfel­berg, Esq., Part­ner, Green­berg Glusker LLP and Leah C. Schwartz, Man­ag­ing Share­hold­er Par­sons Behle & Latimer

Many orga­ni­za­tions use a patch­work approach to legal advice — won­der­ing when it’s nec­es­sary to con­sult a lawyer; work­ing with dif­fer­ent folks for con­tracts, employ­ment, and gov­er­nance. Find­ing a firm that does it all is chal­leng­ing and cost­ly. This pan­el of experts will offer tips on when, why, and how to reach out for pro­fes­sion­al legal guidance.

*Orga­ni­za­tions that join all three ses­sions will be invit­ed to a spe­cial net­work­ing event to cel­e­brate the end of the series where atten­dees will have the oppor­tu­ni­ty to engage with pan­elists and ask ques­tions directly.
