The Division is currently recruiting a Community Board Member to join the board in time for the April 29, 2021 board meeting.
Board members participate in board meetings (currently virtually, every 6 weeks) and the Annual General Meeting as well as other Division events throughout the year. Board members are funded for the work with the Division and:
- commit to the Vision, Mission and Strategic Initiatives of the Division
- lead the Division and its committees in establishing and monitoring annual goals
- provide budget oversight
- ensure regular two-way communication with members, partners and other key stakeholders
