Updating Your Bylaws for Compliance & Good Governance

Bylaws are a nonprofit board’s operating manual. They contain rules that govern both the structure of the board and how it functions. These rules can support a positive and effective board culture, or they can cause confusion and undermine your best efforts.

This workshop will prepare directors to conduct a bylaws review that takes into account leading governance practices as well as this year’s changes to the Florida Nonprofit Corporation Act. Participants will learn about the important relationship between state law, Articles of Incorporation, and bylaws; discuss modernization of governance practices; and explore specific challenges participants are facing in the development of sound and understandable governing rules.
