RRNW is looking for new energetic, committed board members who are passionate about all things river restoration!
We are a working board and a collaborative group of professionals and community members engaged with the practice of river restoration. Each term is 4 years, which may seem long, but goes fast as each board member learns the various needs within our community. Our two biggest roles as a board are putting on our annual symposium and supporting outreach activities among river restoration practitioners. For this next cohort of board members, we are especially looking for applicants that have experience or interest in community organizing and finance operations.
We encourage people to nominate themselves or someone they know who are committed to our mission. If you are interested, the nomination will be opening on October 31st and closing on December 1, 2023.
If you have questions about this process, please reach out to president@rrnw.org. Thank you for your interest!
A note for those considering nomination: Studies have shown that often women, indigenous, black, people of color, and non-binary people are less likely to apply for jobs unless they believe they meet every single one of the qualifications as described in a job description. As a board, we are committed to building a diverse and inclusive organization in support of the mission of RRNW, and are interested in recruiting board members who are aligned with this goal. We strongly encourage you to apply, even if you don't believe you meet every one of the qualifications described.
