Sexual Harassment in the Nonprofit Workplace
About This Web Link
Nonprofit leaders have an obligation to prevent, investigate and address sexual harassment. Harassment can take place in nonprofit workplaces and board rooms. Nonprofit organizations, and potentially board members, can face legal liability for violations of state or federal laws that prohibit sexual harassment. State and federal laws also prohibit retaliation against someone for complaining about sexual harassment, or other types of illegal discrimination. As discrimination in all forms is antithetical to our nation's recognized public policies, discrimination and harassment have no place in a sector dedicated to "public benefit." The resources that follow are applicable whether your organization is a public charity or a private foundation, and whether you are a board or staff member, a donor, a consultant or even a vendor to a nonprofit organization.
