Risk is a reality for every not-for-profit organization. There are many things that can go wrong, from minor, day-to-day incidents to major crises. These may adversely affect the delivery of programs and services, damage the organization’s reputation or, at worst, threaten its capacity to survive. These “risks” can generally be reduced or avoided by good risk management – one of the key responsibilities of a board of directors.
