Nonprofit companies do not have shareholders. Board members are considered the collective owners of an organization and are ultimately responsible for that organization.
Boards of directors are responsible for securing resources, acting as the fiduciary responsible agent, setting policy and hiring, supporting and evaluating the executive. The executive is expected to support the board, lead the staff, ensure the agency is meeting its mission, acting as good stewards of the community's resources and upholding all organizational policies and the law.
