**How do you apply?**
Blacksmith Childcare Centre is a _**non-profit organization**_ whose operations are managed by an _**Executive Director**_, and overseen by a governing _**Board of Directors.**_

Our By-laws direct that we have a Board of 8 members consisting of both parents and community members.

The remaining members attend all Board meetings, vote on issues, sit on committees, and form the governance direction of the organization.
- **The Board’s role**_ is, as mentioned, “governance”. “Governance” refers to the policies and procedures that direct the overall operation of the organization. Board members use these policies and procedures, which have been voted and passed at Board meetings, to provide the structure within which the Executive Director is expected to operate the child care centre. The Board does not play a direct role in the day-to-day operation of the centres. This is the role of the _**Executive Director**_, hired and supervised by the Board to run the centres.
