Facing Homelessness is seeking new volunteer board members.
Facing Homelessness is a “Lead With Love” organization driven by respect and appreciation for our unhoused neighbors. Our programs represent radical ideas that have become proven solutions for bridging the divide between our housed and unhoused neighbors. We do this by inviting members of our long-term housed community to join us in participating in community solutions that create a safer and more equitable world for all and ultimately work to end homelessness.
We are seeking new volunteer board members to help us continue to scale our work. Board terms are three years. We are looking for people who have the time and energy to participate in board leadership and committees, with a special emphasis on fundraising.
Please contact us if you have skills/experience in the following areas, and are moved, as we are, to provide innovative, community-led solutions to the crisis of people living unhoused:
- Fundraising (private and public)
- Legislative advocacy and/or connections in local government
- Personal experience living unhoused
- Personal and/or professional connection with people living unhoused
- Personal experience navigating culturally marginalized identity or identities
The Facing Homelessness board is committed to equity, diversity, inclusion, and anti-racism. We recognize the need for diverse perspectives informed by lived experience, and we understand that all contributors speak from their own unique experiences and are not responsible for representing an entire group on the basis of identity.
For more details about the role and an application, please contact Najja Brown, Board Member, at najja@facinghomelessness.org.
