Expectations of Individual Board Members
Serving at COMPASS provides an opportunity to be generous, collaborative, and impactful with your expertise in one or more of the following areas:
Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
We recognize that in order to achieve our goals, fulfill our mission, and bring our vision to life, we need to include individuals from a wide range of cultural and ethnic backgrounds, with diverse skill sets, areas of expertise, and lived experiences to support decision-making that enhances our work’s impact. Therefore, we are currently looking for new board members to ensure that we move beyond our immediate networks and continue our commitment to creating a board that is diverse in composition, inclusive in culture, and focused on equity in its approach to our mission, work, and the communities we serve.
Have a passion for access to justice: Even when the going gets tough, you know that refugee claimants and other unprotected people must be given their voice and an opportunity to be safe. You will go home knowing you are literally saving lives! What a great feeling!
Have some serious skills: We are on a mission to ensure every possible hurdle to protection and thriving is overcome through excellence, expertise, and empathy. Bring your first-class skills from inside or outside the charitable sector. We will keep you at the top of your game with challenging work and professional development opportunities.
Enjoy solid, reciprocal relationships: COMPASS is all about people. We have helped over 12,000 people over the years and many of them think of us as the second family that welcomed and valued them. That is because we do way more than provide services. We enter into relationships, share the journey together, and learn so much from each other.
