The Secretary of States Office has the authority to investigate charitable organizations. If a nonprofit is also a charitable organization, the Secretary of States Office may look into the matter. For more information on charitable organizations, please visit the Public Charities Division on our Website. If the nonprofit is not acting as a charitable organization, the Secretary of State would have no authority to investigate the nonprofit. The Attorney General is given the authority to investigate nonprofits under the following section in the Nonprofit Act 33-31-171.
