Protecting Your Nonprofit: Internal Controls Basics

Strong financial policies and internal controls don’t just protect against fraud, they build trust, reduce risk, and create a foundation for long-term sustainability. In a time when nonprofits face increasing scrutiny and uncertainty, having clear processes in place is essential for staying compliant, preventing financial missteps, and operating with integrity.

Join us for this interactive workshop, where NEW’s Financial Services team will lead you through best practices for internal controls and financial policies that fit the size and structure of your organization. You’ll receive sample policies and guidance on how to adapt them to your unique needs—whether you’re starting from scratch or updating outdated procedures to reflect your organization’s growth.

• Learn the purpose and components of effective internal controls
• Explore policies that help prevent fraud, ensure compliance, and reduce financial risk
• Receive templates and examples you can customize for your organization
• Understand how to adapt policies as your organization grows and changes

This session is ideal for new or smaller nonprofits that don’t yet have internal controls or financial policies in place. It’s also a great fit for established organizations ready to update existing policies to reflect new levels of growth, risk, or responsibility.
