The role of a Jewish nonprofit board member demands far more than just good intentions. It requires knowledge of governance responsibilities, a commitment to ethical conduct, the ability to think strategically about organizational trajectory, and dedication to fostering an inclusive culture of open dialogue and accountability. This guide provides a starting point and guidance to prepare board members for service.   

We hope that this resource energizes you to give generously of your time, treasure, and talent in service of the organization to which you are committed.   

​NOTE: Board Members, for deeper learning, register for the upcoming Board Workshop Series: Sessions For Board Members.

Professionals working with boards: in addition to this guide, you can also refer to our guide for Board Chairs, and our upcoming Leadership Lab: Collaborating With You Board cohort experience.
