Nonprofit Human Resources Gathering

Event Details

Wednesday, February 8, 2023
12:00pm-1:00 PT
Online via Zoom

Do you have questions about recruiting candidates for jobs at your nonprofit? Do you want to strengthen employee retention at your organization? How do you ensure your recruitment and retention practices are in compliance with things like the Equal Pay and Opportunities Act, overtime and pay regulations, protected leaves, and more? Join a panel of nonprofit professionals from across the state for a conversation on employee recruitment and retention.

We invite those whose work focuses on HR to come together to learn, exchange information, and support each other. Whether you work in an HR department or support HR in another capacity, this gathering is for you!
