Event Description

The media, Congress, the IRS, and every auditor all want nonprofit boards and executive directors to provide more meaningful oversight of their organization’s finances. Community-based nonprofit boards and many nonprofit executive directors, often find themselves long on commitment and programmatic knowledge, and short on financial expertise. Even board members with strong business backgrounds may be unfamiliar with nonprofit financial reporting formats and compliance requirements, and unaware of the most common nonprofit fraud risks.

Nonprofit Financial Oversight is designed for Executive Directors, Board members, and fiscal managers seeking new tools and strategies to provide high level financial oversight and direction for their nonprofit.

Workshop topics will include:

  • Board oversight responsibilities
  • Essential financial info for boards
  • Board service risks and risk management strategies
  • “Must have” policies and procedures
  • Fraud prevention – board and management roles

Workshop leader Kay Sohl has worked on financial oversight issues with boards, executive directors, fiscal managers, and auditors of nonprofit organizations throughout the northwest. Kay has presented workshops on fraud prevention, financial reporting, and board oversight for Oregon Society of CPAs, the American Institute of CPAs not-for-profit national conference, and thousands of community-based nonprofit leaders.
