Prescott Farm wants to engage with the local community and gain knowledge in a variety of areas! Volunteer committee members help Prescott Farm develop our engagement within the Lakes Region community.
Our Risk Committee is designed to draw from the experience of volunteer members to consider and recommend to the board of directors and staff strategies for risk mitigation at Prescott Farm. Areas of expertise may include human resources management, financial management, insurance, camp and preschool licensing, emergency preparedness, and others.
- Conduct formal and informal risk assessments to identify risks and determine the degree of negative impact they could have on Prescott Farm
- Set reasonable thresholds for the risk Prescott Farm can take on
- Plan and recommend policy to the board of directors to manage the determined risk responsibly
