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.
