Have you wondered what it would be like to serve on the board of a nonprofit?

Do you already serve on one but would like some more training?


If you answered yes to either of these questions you should attend the Young Leaders Society's Nonprofit Board Training!


Yes, we know its a Saturday, so attending requires some sacrfiice, but so does serving on a nonprofit board- so its good practice

In answer to Antonio's question, the 3 P's to this training are: Purpose- to understand the expectations and commitment involved in serving on a nonprofit board. Process- the agenda is listed above (some of the sessions will be interactive, and all will have time for questions as well). Payoff- to gain knowledge about serving on boards, and if interested make connections to actually be placed on a board of a local nonprofit agency.
