NECC Board of Directors
Join our Board & Committee Efforts!
We are looking for new board and committee members to join an organization undergoing a reimagining. The NECC is expanding its community engagement efforts to become a more inclusive organization that embraces equity, diversity and inclusion in all governance and operations. To that end, we are looking for volunteers to help us transition to a more multicultural organization. Perhaps you’ve gained experience in implementing diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) plans at your own workplace and want to help someone else navigate the opportunities and challenges of DEI work? We are seeking engaged community members who are excited about contributing energy, expertise, and enthusiasm to an organization dedicated to fostering a more inclusive and equitable community.
Board members are asked to participate in evening meetings once a month, with occasional activities with committees and/or the full board outside of regular meetings. Board members provide high-level oversight and guidance to ensure that the NECC’s policies, programs, and priorities align with the organization’s mission, values, and Strategic Plan. Board members also support both fundraising and “friend-raising” by sharing the NECC’s story with friends, family, co-workers, and neighbors and conveying the value of the NECC to you and the broader community.
Committee Members are also asked to participate in a monthly meeting with occasional activities with other committees and/or the full board outside of regular meetings. Committee members play a key role in strengthening our programs, facilities, and outreach efforts by working with staff and board members at the operations level. The three committees are:
- Community Relations – Enhance outreach and engagement with our diverse community.
- Finance & Facilities – Oversee budgeting, financial planning, and facility maintenance/improvements.
- Governance – Support organizational structure, Board and community center direction, strategic planning.
If you are looking for a place to apply your skills or learn new ones, all while helping build community, please consider volunteering! Here’s how to apply:
