The NYSPCC is seeking people with a passion for our mission to join our board of directors.

Why join? Board members make a difference. Our Board guides our strategic direction and our long-term sustainability. Their leadership helps ensure our vision and values and our commitment to equity are lived out in daily work.

Board members work collaboratively with other members, the executive director, the staff leadership team, and the staff. They are expected to contribute in ways that match their interests, abilities, talents, and connections. You can learn more about board member responsibilities below.

We value a broad range of personal and professional backgrounds.

  • Reviewing key performance indicators to evaluate impact and progress.
