As we’ve written about previously, Social Media Codes of Conduct and the policies written to enforce them can be difficult to manage for some smaller nonprofits. In an effort to continue to forward the newest and greatest tools available, we wanted to forward along the following site, Policy Tool for Social Media. By answering a few simple questions, even the smallest and most time strapped charities can setup basic, legally binding requirements for their staff and volunteers to follow. Even better? The service is free.
Social media doesn’t have to be daunting; just the smallest bit of preparation can prevent usage headaches down the line. Hopefully sites like the Policy Tool are just one step to helping all nonprofits enter into this worthwhile technological space.
