Ai Governance Policy

Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly becoming part of the nonprofit landscape—shaping how organizations plan, communicate, govern, and operate. When used thoughtfully, AI can be a powerful tool in the service of nonprofit missions, increasing efficiency, insight, and capacity.
‍

This policy is offered as a practical governance guide to support responsible, ethical, and transparent use of AI in nonprofit organizations. It is designed to help boards, executives, and staff navigate emerging technologies with intention, care, and accountability—while protecting organizational integrity and the trust placed in nonprofit leadership.

‍
This document is intended to be customized and adopted by each organization to reflect its mission, values, legal context, and risk tolerance. It may be incorporated into governance policies, staff handbooks, or operational guidelines at the organization’s discretion.
AI does not replace human judgment, fiduciary responsibility, or ethical leadership. Rather, this policy affirms that technology should remain in service to people, purpose, and public trust.
