Accountability and Nonprofit Organizations: An Ethical Perspective

Abstract

Given limited market regulation and no direct voter regula¬tion, how nonprofit organizations can be made accountable is a serious and long-standing issue for the sector. The expecta¬tions and demands of various constituent groups associated with nonprofits are often conflicting and even contradictory. Nonprofits need to come to terms with legitimate expectations, base them on reasonable standards, and work through each of them in ways consistent with the others and with the respec¬tive missions of the organizations.
