Behind the scenes\, powerful missions\, innovative programs\, and passionate staff and volunteers are supported by financial activities and decisions. Healthy nonprofit organizations employ financial management practices that build stability and flexibility both for today and in the future. But nonprofit finances can be an opaque topic\, and sometimes one that nonprofit leaders have to grapple with before they have all the training they may need and want. Come along to this session to hear from one of the best about how to keep everything straight\, employ due diligence – and feel confident in your checks and balances. This session will discuss the 12 Golden Rules of Nonprofit Finance\, and the Financial Responsibilities of Nonprofit Boards. 								\n				\n					\n				\n		\n					\n				\n				\n							\n						\n				\n				\n				\n							\n			\n						\n		\n						\n				\n				\n				\n							\n			\n		\n						\n				\n				\n				\n					MEET THE PRESENTER				\n				\n		\n				\n				\n																														\n				\n				\n				\n									Presenter: Vicki ClarkConsultant | Clark & Sanchez Consulting Vicki Clark is an optimist.
