A Code of Ethics and the Nonprofit Sector
“The greatest threat to the not-for-profit sector is the betrayal of public trust, the disappointment of public confidence. Virtually all knowledgeable observers of the not-for-profit scene believe that an overwhelming proportion of not-for-profits are honorably run...that admirable context, however, does not provide much protection to the sector when a sequence of highly publicized disgraceful not-for-profit misdeeds occurs.”

ETHNN encourages all nonprofits to convene a working group of board and staff to craft an appropriate Code of Ethics for your nonprofit. Some nonprofits will want their codes to reflect or incorporate specific standards, such as those articulated in the Code of Ethics of the National Association of Social Workers, or other sector-specific codes. Other nonprofits will want to reflect their own unique culture, activities and interaction with clients, volunteers, and the public.
Organizational Representatives
Each member of the ETHNN is a vital link in a collaborative community network, and as such, shares in ideas, concerns and decisions as well as the development and deployment of resources to address the needs of low income and vulnerable populations.
