*NOTE: Board members also serve on at least one Committee. Community Committee members serve on one or more Committees and do not sit on the Board.
Board of Directors:
The Board of Directors provides leadership and governance for FCSGW by providing oversight of its performance and outcomes. Board members attend regular meetings and are encouraged to attend FCSGW events and participate in the life of the organization.
Community Committee Members:
Committees serve in an advisory capacity and make recommendations to the Board. Like Board members, they attend meetings and are encouraged to attend FCSGW events and participate in the life of the organization.
Skills and Experience:
We are committed to having our Board represent our community with a broad mix of experience, knowledge, and skills. We are particularly interested in the broad perspectives that people with diverse abilities, race, sexual orientation, gender identity, and ethnicity would bring. Orientation, mentorship, and training will be provided.
Time Commitment:
Board applicants must be able to attend meetings in Guelph on the first Wednesday evening of each month and participate on at least one committee for a total of approximately 4-6 hours per month, plus meeting preparation time. Committee members normally attend one virtual committee meeting every two months. Board meetings are in person, with virtual meetings held during the winter months.
To Apply:
If you would like to apply to be nominated to a position on the Board of Directors or a Board committee, or if you would like more information, please contact Ava Gorch at ava.gorch@fcsgw.org or 519-824-2410 ext. 4111.
