Board Governance
This resource, Compensating Nonprofit Board Members from NEO Law Group, explores the debate around compensating nonprofit board members, highlighting both the common expectation of volunteer service and the differing perspectives on whether paid board service is appropriate.
According to Joan Garry: "Healthy nonprofits have great boards that work hand-in-hand with the Executive Director to help fulfill the mission. In order to have a great board, a nonprofit needs board members who are engaged, inspired, and understand how to help. This is true for long-standing board members. This is especially true for brand new ones."
