What Board Service Looks Like
-
LFS Board members help guide the organization's strategic direction, provide governance and fiduciary oversight, strengthen organizational sustainability, expand relationships and resources, and champion the work of Linked Family Services within their professional and community networks.
-
Board members are expected to participate in quarterly Board meetings, review materials in preparation for meetings, contribute their expertise and perspective, and support LFS through relationship-building, resource development, strategic introductions, and other activities aligned with their individual strengths and capacity.
-
Board members also make a $100 annual personal contribution to Linked Family Services.
Who We're Looking For
-
We are looking for thoughtful, collaborative, and mission-aligned individuals who understand that strong governance is about more than attending meetings.
-
Our ideal Board members are willing to contribute their time, talent, perspective, and networks; ask thoughtful questions; make meaningful connections; and help position LFS for its next stage of growth.
-
Most importantly, we are looking for people who believe families deserve access to meaningful support before challenges become crises.
