Board Recruitment Systems

Project details

What we need
  • Assessment of what skills and abilities are missing on your board
  • Clear job descriptions for current or open board positions
  • Guidelines for your board member interview process
  • Recommendations for eliminating bias in your current board recruiting process
  • Note: The Professional will not be communicating with prospective board members.
What we have in place
  • We have our incorporation paperwork as well as a clear mission, values and goals. Our COO is ready and able to provide any support as necessary.
How this will help
This project will save us $4,806 , allowing us to focus our funds on developing supports and programs for the community.

When we were hacked, we lost the trust of our board, thus losing most board members. As we rebuild, we want to create board descriptors that will attract mission aligned individuals who are ready and willing to work for our community.
