Nominate or inquire about running!
This year's elections offer an unusual opportunity to choose among a number of open board positions for terms ranging from one to three years.
Nomination Deadline: September 30, 2020.
Board members determine the direction and work of WILPF US in multiple ways:
- Make policy decisions and take actions for program, membership building, and fund-raising;
- Participate in WILPF US deliberations on policy, budget, and other issues;
- Help shape and develop WILPF at the national level;
- Develop respectful working relationships with sister board members.
Board membership comes with many benefits:
- Leadership growth: Whether fairly new to leadership or having played a leadership role for many years, board members develop new skills and enjoy the stretch of spreading leadership wings.
- Personal growth: Enjoy increasing confidence. As your abilities grow, so do you!
- Mentorship and guidance: Board members are not alone! Former board members have agreed to advise new board members as desired.
- Enjoy working relationships with other intelligent, energetic, and talented women like yourself.
- Be a part of change! WILPF needs a full board as we navigate these historic times. Our unique outlook links corporate greed and patriarchy to militarization and war.
An active WILPF is urgently needed in the peace movement!
