Brooke Leondar and Kenesha Starling – Primer for Nonprofits on Paid Employees, Volunteers, and Interns

Nonprofits are some of the best providers of necessary services in the United States. However, many run on shoestring budgets and require a mix of paid staff, volunteers, and internships to fulfill their missions, and there are still labor and employment laws, rules, and regulations they must follow. We discuss some of the issues around staff classification and benefits with Jackson Walker Labor & Employment attorney Brooke Leondar and Kenesha Starling, a third-year South Texas College of Law student and 2020 summer associate at Jackson Walker.
