Overview

This resource equips mission-driven organizations with a values-centered framework for making decisions about AI engagement. Instead of framing AI as purely beneficial or purely risky, the guide encourages leaders to consider critical questions: where AI can improve efficiency without undermining fairness, which contexts demand human oversight, and when it is more appropriate to decline use rather than experiment. The framework outlines steps to assess risk, define organizational values, pilot responsibly, establish guardrails, and continually revisit decisions as technology advances.
