Though all workplaces have them\, mission statements\, communication guidelines\, and company policies can clash with words that mean the most to many employees. Additionally\, concepts like coded language and loaded position descriptions continue to uphold social constructs such as racism\, ableism\, sexism\, and beyond. How do we stay true to our brand without perpetuating stereotypes and creating harm in the workplace? \nThis session will lead participants through an exploration of how we unintentionally reinforce social constructs with language\, and how to end the practice at work. Together we will examine the impact of sanitized language in nonprofits\, the ways in which it is most commonly used\, and where the most meaningful adjustments should be made. \nLearning outcomes: \n\nExplore the most common ways dominant cultures use language and control narratives.\nExamine the impact of sanitized language in the workplace\, and where it shows up.\nExtend the vocabulary commonly used at work\, and replace unnecessary or outdated language.\n\nEvent Details\nThis virtual event will take place on the Zoom platform. Your access link will be emailed to you the day before the event after 12 p.m. \nThis session will be recorded. The recording will be made available to registrants for 14 days after the live event. \nCaptioning is provided automatically through Zoom.

SUMMARY:How to Keep Charitable Nonprofits and Houses of Worship Protected from Partisan Politics
DESCRIPTION:This webinar is hosted by the National Council of Nonprofits. \nAugust 26th\, 3:00 – 4:00 PM \nRegistration Fees: FREE \nREGISTRATION\nRegister today to join the National Council of Nonprofits for a national webinar on Tuesday\, August 26 at 3:00 pm Eastern to learn more about efforts to undermine federal protections for charitable nonprofits\, including houses of worship\, against partisan politics and the dark money that fuels it. \nWithout this protection\, politicians may try to pressure charitable nonprofits to endorse their election campaigns\, exert control over nonprofit organizations’ mission and the services they provide\, and funnel tax-exempt charitable donations to their election war chest. These efforts could radically alter campaign finance laws to benefit politicians at the expense of charities\, houses of worship\, and foundations\, severely damaging the integrity and effectiveness of the entire sector and our elections. \nSpeakers will discuss why it is critical for charitable nonprofits\, including religious organizations\, to remain nonpartisan and how nonprofits can take action to ensure these vital institutions remain a trusted space where people can come together across political\, religious\, and cultural divides to solve local problems. \nPlease note that each registration is unique and will allow only one login to the webinar. If you utilize an automated AI note-taking app\, you may run into issues if that AI note-taker logs in before you do.

Best of all\, you can do this while keeping your familiar chart of accounts intact for board reporting and internal use. \nYou’ll learn how to:\n\nset up custom line items in QBO that mirror your grantor’s required budget and reporting categories;\nrecord grant revenue and expenses using these line items and assign them to the appropriate grant;\nenter a grant-specific budget using these line items instead of your standard accounts;\ngenerate grant-specific reports that match your funder’s required format; and\,\nuse the billable feature in QBO to generate reimbursement invoices automatically.\n\nWho should attend:\nThis is an advanced-level webinar. Come prepared to dive deep\, ask questions\, and have some fun along the way! \nAfter the webinar\, you’ll receive:\n\nslides and handouts; and\,\na link to the webinar recording.\n\n\n\n\nDate\nThursday\, September 18\, 2025 – 2 PM EDT\n\n\nDuration\n90 Minutes\n\n\nQuestions?
