| LD Session 7 - Board Roles and Ethics |
|
| Not-for-Profit organizations are generally created to provide programs and services to meet the specific needs or interests of the constituency in which they serve. These organizations are governed by a board of directors, which is responsible for directing, influencing and monitoring the organization's business. Board members are volunteers who have a genuine interest in the well being of the organization. With board membership, however, comes responsibility and accountabilty.
