AI for Nonprofits: A Practical Strategy for Safe and Responsible AI Adoption

-

Zoom (Webinar)

You are already doing more with less, and now AI offers new opportunities to save time, stretch limited resources, and strengthen your organization’s work. But how do you use it safely and responsibly?

In this interactive workshop, we will explore practical ways AI can save your organization time and resources while learning to recognize risks such as privacy concerns, bias, and inaccurate information. Using Dr. Jackman’s TRUST Framework and the 5Ps for AI Policy-Building, we will explore how to establish guidelines for staff and board members using AI, taking the first steps toward an AI policy that reflects your organization’s values. 

In this workshop, participants will: 

  • Build AI Literacy: Understand essential AI terminology and concepts to discuss AI use with greater clarity and confidence.
  • Recognize Risks and Strengthen AI Safety: Identify common AI risks, understand practical safeguards for staff and board members, and understand why an organizational AI policy is essential for protecting sensitive information and the people they serve.
  • Identify Practical AI Opportunities: Explore five ways AI can save time and resources, and identify one routine organizational task that could benefit from AI-assisted automation.

You’ll leave with plain-language vocabulary for talking about AI, a roadmap for responsible AI adoption, and the confidence to decide where AI fits within your mission.

Who should participate:

  • Nonprofit leaders and staff, especially those who are responsible for or grappling with how to shape their organizational AI strategy.
