“Bolder Boards:  Nonprofit Board Service for the Fearless”
Nonprofit boards are a great way to get engaged in community service and make Cabarrus County a better place, but information about how to join and serve on boards is scarce. Join us for a series of two workshops to learn about the paths to board service and the questions to ask before you sign up; the roles and responsibilities of nonprofit boards; and key questions and skills that are essential for board membership but useful in your work and personal lives, as well. We’ll use case studies, discussion and table challenges to keep the conversation energized, and our trainer will leverage her 25 years’ experience in the nonprofit sector to answer all your questions.

These sessions are designed for those who have not previously served on a nonprofit board of directors.
