Chrystal currently serves as the Executive Director of MassHousing. Before joining MassHousing in February 2018\, she served as the Baker-Polito Administration’s Undersecretary for Housing and Community Development. Prior to that\, she was Urban Edge’s President and Chief Executive Officer and an active member of MACDC. Chrystal brings to state government a deep understanding of affordable housing finance and the nuances of resident-led community development. \nSince entering pubic service\, Chrystal has used her experience\, expertise and tenacity to advance several important priorities. Since FY 2015\, the Baker Administration has increased state capital dollars for affordable housing by almost 18% and worked with the legislature to increase rental subsidies for low income families by 42%. Chrystal has worked collaboratively to launch a $100 million workforce housing initiative; collaborated with partners in state government and the nonprofit sector to dramatically reduce the number of homeless families in motels; launched the Community Scale Housing Initiative; partnered with the Mel King Institute to provide leadership training to resident board commissioners serving on local housing authorities; and worked to streamline and grow the Community Investment Tax Credit program. \nChrystal is a graduate of the Achieving Excellence Program at Harvard University’s Kennedy School of Government\, holds a Master’s Degree in City Planning from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a Bachelor of Arts from Hunter College. \nThank you to our generous event sponsors!  \n2019 Sponsors to Date\nPlatinum\nKeith Construction\, Inc.\nNixon Peabody LLP\nThe Schochet Companies\nWilmer Cutler Pickering Hale and Dorr LLP\nWinnCompanies \nGold\nThe Architectural Team\, Inc.\nBeacon Communities LLC\nBoston Private\nBrown Rudnick LLP\nChoate Hall & Stewart LLP\nDellbrook | JKS\nDLA Piper LLP (US)\nEastern Bank\nMorgan\, Lewis & Bockius LLP\nNolan Sheehan Patten LLP\nNordblom Company\nProskauer Rose LLP\nResidences at Malden Station LLC \nSilver\nCrosspoint Associates\, Inc.\nDechert LLP\nEA Fish Development LLC\nThe Heritage Companies\, Inc.\nKlein Hornig LLP\nMintz\, Levin\, Cohn\, Ferris\, Glovsky and Popeo\, P.C.\nMyra Musicant and Howard Cohen\nNEI General Contracting\, Inc.\nNelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough LLP\nPreservation of Affordable Housing\nRockport Mortgage Corporation\nSullivan & Worcester LLP\nThe Life Initiative\nUBS Financial Services Inc. \nSponsors\nAffirmative Investments\, Inc.\nBoston Scientific Corporation\nThe Bulfinch Companies\, Inc.\nCastle Square Tenants Organization\, Inc.\nConn Kavanaugh Rosenthal Peisch & Ford\, LLP\nEdward M.

SUMMARY:MA Paid Family Leave Workshop: An Overview for Nonprofits
DESCRIPTION:Registration for this event is currently full\, but we welcome you to sign up for the waitlist. Please contact Russell Paul with any questions. \nMA Paid Family and Medical Leave Law will be altering the legal requirements of all employers operating in Massachusetts\, including nonprofits. This new law will require all employers to allow employees and covered individuals to\, among other things\, take up to 20 weeks of paid leave for an employee’s own health conditions and up to 12 weeks of paid leave for a family member’s illness. While the leave entitlements will not take effect until January 1\, 2021\, new notification requirements and payroll contribution deductions will go into effect by July 1\, 2019. This workshop is intended for all nonprofits that have or are planning to hire employees and covered individuals that want to know more about this new legal requirement. \nAgenda:\n\nWhat is the Paid Family and Medical Leave Law?\nHow will this affect nonprofit employers and employees?\nWhat does my nonprofit have to do prior to July 1\, 2019?\nHow can a nonprofit prepare for these changes?\nDo employees have any requirements?\nWho is considered a covered individual?\nWho is considered a family member?\nWhat is the payment schedule and how much does the employer need to pay during the leave?\nWhat is considered a serious medical need?\nWhat happens if I don’t comply with the new law?\n\nPresenters: Michael C. Birch\, labor and employement lawyer and business litigator at Hirsch Roberts Weinstein; and Charlotte Petilla\, labor and employment lawyer at Hirsch Roberts Weinstein.
