Discussion on how to identify, attract, and retain diverse volunteers for your board.
About this event
A diverse nonprofit board includes people of all genders, races, ages, sexual orientations, cultural backgrounds and levels of ability. Diversity ensures consideration of a variety of perspectives and ultimately helps the board make more informed decisions. But diversifying your board comes with challenges – how do you find new board members outside of your immediate circle? How do you ensure your board will embrace and respect a wider range of opinions and perspectives? Preparing for and embracing a diversified board requires commitment, planning, and humility.
In this session, we will discuss how to identify, attract, and retain diverse volunteers for your board. We will also talk with a nonprofit leader who has successfully used our BoardStrong platform to grow and diversify the board of their organization.
This free event is made possible with support from the Community Foundations of the Hudson Valley, the Community Foundation of Orange & Sullivan, the Dyson Foundation and the Hudson Valley Regional Advisory Council.
