Online resources: Prairie Addiction Society (PAS) is based on the situations in an existing not-for-profit community organization, although the name is disguised. The case focuses on the governance and management control issues following a fraud investigation involving the Board of Directors. PAS was advised to reorganize its management and governance systems to prevent the occurrence of such an event in the future. The case can be used to cover several management control topics such as organization structure, budgeting, and performance management. The case can also be used to increase students' understanding of governance roles, responsibilities, policies, and protocols in a not-for-profit organization. One of the authors was involved in investigating the fraud and another provided a strategic roadmap for improvement.
