Pro Bono Consultation for Nonprofits: Are Your Organization’s Anti-Harassment Policies Up-to-Date and Do They Effectively Combat Harassment?

Please note: This event is currently at capacity. Please contact Machiko Sano Hewitt to inquire about our waitlist.

Does your nonprofit have an anti-harassment policy in place that clearly identifies unacceptable conduct? If so, when did you last update it? And has it effectively deterred bad behavior and protected your employees? Come and join our consultation program on this timely topic. The law firm of Seyfarth Shaw LLP will lead a discussion on topics including legal compliance, practical issues facing nonprofits, and best practices. Following this program, pro bono attorneys will meet with preselected attendees to review their existing anti-harassment policies. 

Payment: $25 per organization. Someone will contact you regarding payment  in the event that consultation space becomes available.

Presenters: Daniel Klein, Cindy Westervelt, Kelsey Montgomery, and Molly Mooney of Seyfarth Shaw LLP.
