Directors are appointed for an initial two-year term and are eligible for reappointment for up to two additional terms. As such, we are seeking individuals who feel they can commit to serve for up to six consecutive years. Directors are expected to prepare for and attend Board meetings and actively contribute to Board discussions and committee work.

At this time, we are specifically encouraging individuals to apply who have relevant experience in one or more of the following areas:

• Finance / Accounting, including experience supporting financial oversight and sustainability in not-for-profit or public-interest settings.
• Affordable / Supportive Housing Development, including experience with housing projects, partnerships, or system-level housing initiatives.
• Quality Improvement and Risk Management, including experience improving service quality, outcomes, or organizational performance.
• Health and/or Social Service Sector Integrations, including experience working across organizations, partnerships, or integrated service models.

Directors will contribute to the stewardship of a respected community organization while working collaboratively with a committed and engaged Board, and supporting the continued advancement of a progressive and mission-driven agency.
