Join Our Board of Directors!
All board members are expected to acknowledge and honor the fundamental value and dignity of all individuals, make a personal financial commitment (no matter how small, every penny counts), and dedicate time and professional expertise toward strategic goals.
Interested parties should be willing to be active participants in fundraising, community engagement, and mission actualization. All board members should also exhibit strong leadership skills, creative vision, personal integrity, enthusiasm, and effectively work with the other board members, advisors, volunteers, and community members.
We are committed to building board leadership that is diversely reflective of the community we serve and actively seek applications from lesbians, gay men, women, bisexual and transgender individuals, people of color, people living with HIV, and people with disabilities.
