014: Nonprofit Basics: Insurance Coverage for the New Nonprofit

Welcome to EO Radio Show – Your Nonprofit Legal Resource. Risk management for a nonprofit starts with good governance, effective management and appropriate policies for employment practices, conflicts of interest and financial management among others. In today's conversation, I'd like to focus on the backstop to good risk management, that is appropriate insurance coverage, because misnakes happen. Yeah, I said that right. Misnakes. In this episode, I'm delighted to bring you part one of a conversation with Melissa Dalske, Chief Experience Officer at Nonprofits Insurance Alliance. The alliance is an organization relied on by more than 24,000 nonprofit organizations in 32 states and the District of Columbia for their liability and property insurance needs. These nonprofits include animal rescues, children's programs, group homes, senior organizations, art programs, food banks, community groups, foster family agencies, and many others. These organizations are essential to the health of the communities they serve.
