Edmonton, Alberta, Canada Youth Empowerment & Support Services Full time

Join YESS' Board of Directors and contribute to shaping the organization's future.

YESS is seeking energetic and committed individuals to help drive the organization's strategic direction and governance oversight.

About YESS

YESS' Youth Support Centres provide 24/7 access to immediate and low-barrier physical, mental, cultural, and emotional health supports and safe places to stay for youth aged 15-24 in crisis.

Mission: Collaboratively build a network of care to ensure youth get the expert help they need, when they need it, and where they need it.

Vision: A more connected, holistic, and lower-barrier system for youth in crisis.

Values:

  • Courage to be honest, vulnerable, and curious.
  • Compassion for ourselves and everyone to establish trust, empathy, and understanding.
  • Commitment to lead with intention, to make a meaningful difference and be accountable in all we do.
The Opportunity

The Board actively works to identify and recruit members willing to contribute their professional experience, insights, and lived experience to further YESS' strategic objectives and board's governance capacity.

We are currently looking for strategic and engaged individuals with non-profit board governance experience and expertise in one or more of the following areas:

  • Fundraising and Fund Development
  • Finance/Accounting
  • Social Service Programming
  • Social Media/PR
  • Government relations

Board members commit approximately six to ten hours per month, through attendance and active participation in board meetings every second month, an annual Board planning session, membership on a Board committee or working group, and engagement in external activities.

This is an exciting time for YESS as we launch our new 5-year Strategic Plan, and we invite individuals interested in ensuring that youth in crisis receive the support they need to lend their expertise and experience.

Requirements

Clear police clearance (CRIM) and a Child and Youth Intervention (CYIM) checks, both obtained within the last six months.

Qualified applicants are asked to submit their resume and a cover letter stating their professional background and a description of interest in the position.
