Our Board
A board of directors is actively engaged in overseeing Carey Services' operations. As part of its responsibility, the board assures the following obligations are executed:
- Duty of Care – Board members exercise due care in all dealings with the organization and its interest.
- Duty of Loyalty – Personal and professional conflicts of interest, including the appearances of conflicts of interest, are avoided.
- Duty of Obedience – Obedience to the organization’s central purpose guides all decisions.
Indiana law also specifically prescribes responsibilities of a nonprofit board of directors:
- The board of an Indiana nonprofit corporation typically has ultimate responsibility for all the activities of the organization (IC 23-17-12-1(b).
- Board members must act in good faith, with the care an ordinary prudent person in a like position would exercise and in a manner which the member reasonably believes to be in the best interest of the corporation (IC 23-17-13-1(a).
