Not-for-Profit and Education

Educational institutions and other not-for-profit organizations view their mission as providing a public service. They tend to be more heavily unionized and their collective bargaining agreements raise unique economic and non-economic issues, particularly in the area of job security (in education, for example, the concept of tenure). In addition, the decisionmaking process in educational and not-for-profit institutions typically is heavily influenced by the voices of committees and Boards of Directors; as a result, and because these institutions often depend for their existence upon maintaining public support, decisions in the area of labor and employment relations receive special scrutiny and must take account of both the views of diverse constituencies and of public relations concerns.

Some of KMM's educational and not-for-profit clients are St. John's University and Victory Schools.
