Description

"This course contains the use of artificial intelligence."
Community action agencies operate under a governance model unlike any other in the nonprofit sector. The tri-partite board structure—mandated by federal law as a condition of Community Services Block Grant funding—requires equal representation from government, private sector, and low-income community members. Getting this right isn't optional. Boards that fall out of compliance risk losing their federal funding entirely.
This course gives you a practical, plain-language guide to everything you need to know about tri-partite governance. You'll start with the origins of this model in the Economic Opportunity Act of 1964, so you understand why these

exist and why they matter beyond just regulatory checkbox-checking. From there, you'll work through the specific legal

Requirements

under the CSBG Act, including how board composition is calculated, what documentation you must maintain, and how state-level rules can add

Requirements

on top of federal ones.
Beyond compliance, this course focuses on making tri-partite governance work in practice. Recruiting authentic low-income representatives, structuring committees for balanced leadership, facilitating meetings where all voices carry equal weight, and supporting board members who face practical barriers to participation—these are the real challenges that determine whether your board fulfills its mission or just fills seats.
You'll finish with tools to assess your current board against federal standards, identify gaps, and build an improvement plan you can act on immediately. Whether you're onboarding a new board member, preparing for a CSBG monitoring visit, or simply trying to make your governance more effective, this course gives you the knowledge and practical strategies to do it right.

Who this course is for

Staff members at community action agencies and CSBG-funded organizations
Current or prospective tri-partite board members in any sector
Nonprofit executives and administrators responsible for board compliance
