We are looking for new members to add to ISPU’s award-winning board of directors.

Members of ISPU’s Board are expected to participate in regular board and committee meetings. This includes an average of 10 virtual meetings annually (and an occasional in-person retreat depending on COVID-19), representing ISPU to the wider community, attending ISPU events, and supporting ISPU’s financial wellbeing by supporting fundraising efforts and donating at a personally appropriate level.
