About the Role
The Company is seeking dedicated individuals to join its Board of Directors. The Board plays a crucial governance role, ensuring the organization's fiduciary, strategic, and sustainable well-being. Board members are expected to be trusted advisors, serve on committees, review performance metrics, contribute to the strategic plan, and approve key decisions. The ideal candidate will be a community leader with a strong interest in the company's mission, which includes land conservation, workforce readiness, and the creation of a just and equitable society. Experience in non-profit functions, the ability to lead a committee, and a commitment to diversity are essential. The company is particularly interested in individuals with expertise in fundraising, corporate engagement, government relations, public policy, advocacy, community organizing, public health, re-entry and carceral system experience, accounting, and finance. Candidates for the Board of Directors at the company should be prepared to make a significant time commitment, including attending regular meetings and actively participating in the organization's activities. Responsibilities also include mentoring new Board members, setting fundraising goals, and representing the company to stakeholders and the public. The company is dedicated to building a Board that reflects the diversity and expertise of the communities it serves, and is therefore seeking individuals who can bring new perspectives and skills to the table. If you are passionate about the mission of the company and meet the qualifications outlined, we encourage you to apply and be part of a team that is making a real difference in the world.
