Nonprofit Collaborations: Legal Considerations & Best Practices

About this episode

This episode discusses how nonprofits can effectively collaborate while managing legal risks.

Collaborating with other nonprofits can be a powerful way to stretch limited resources and amplify impact. By pooling expertise, staff time or funding, partnerships can help organizations do more with less. But successful collaboration doesn't happen by accident. It requires clear expectations and defined roles from the start. In this episode of the PBPA Podcast, attorney Gail Gunnells joins us to discuss how nonprofits can maximize the benefits of collaboration while minimizing the legal risks.
