While you focus on mission, you also need to make sure your organization stays on the right side of the law. This session breaks down the key legal responsibilities every nonprofit should understand, including rules specific to Tribal-based organizations.
We explore:

federal law: IRS filing, politics & lobbying, donations, donor restrictions
