DESCRIPTION: \nPeople with disabilities bring a unique set of life-learned skills and perspectives that help boards make better decisions and have a positive impact on the communities they serve. However, they are rarely considered as potential board members for non-disability specific organization boards. Nonprofits need more inclusive recruitment and retention strategies to recruit people with varied abilities. Join a panel of nonprofit leaders as they discuss how they successfully meet the challenges of recruiting from this diverse pool of potential board members.\nModerator: Rachel Pardoe, Senior Program Officer, The New York Community Trust.\nDETAILS:\n\nWhen: Tuesday, October 29th, 2024, Noon - 1:00pm, ET\n\nWhere: Online. A link will be sent to all who register.\n\nBoardStrong's mission is to assist nonprofit organizations in achieving the highest standards of board leadership, governance and oversight. We do this by providing nonprofit board training, consultation and providing educational resources. We also have an online recruitment platform that helps organizations seeking new board members find talented board candidates from outside their networks.\nBoardStrong is an affiliate of the New York Council of Nonprofits (NYCON).\n\nFor details, click here: https://www.nycon.org/news-events/events/event/562
