Board Bootcamp: The Compliance Compass
Steering Your Nonprofit Through HR Challenges
HR compliance doesn’t have to feel overwhelming—especially in the nonprofit world, where every decision matters and impacts your mission. In this Board Bootcamp session, The Compliance Compass, we'll guide you through the complex but critical rules that govern your nonprofit’s people practices.
Led by Amber Rhoton, Founder and CEO, of Amplified HR—trusted HR partners who help organizations protect themselves, reduce risk, and focus on growth—this workshop will give nonprofit leaders and board members the tools to confidently handle HR compliance without the guesswork.
We’ll break down the essentials in plain language, covering:
- The HR compliance requirements every nonprofit needs to understand
- How to correctly classify staff vs. contractors (and why it matters)
- Must-have policies and procedures to protect your organization
- Strategies to reduce legal risk
- Practical ways board members can support strong HR practices
Whether you’re launching a new board or strengthening an established one, you’ll leave with actionable steps to safeguard your nonprofit, protect your team, and keep your mission moving forward.
This bootcamp was planned with the following attendees in mind: Board members, executive directors, HR staff, and nonprofit leadership teams who want to lead with confidence and stay ahead of compliance challenges.
Presented in partnership with Community Foundation of East Central Illinois
