The NSBS Gender Equity committee is seeking new members. The committee’s purpose is to advise, monitor, and support the Council in the work and governance of the Society on Gender Equity Issues.
Gender Equity Issues are those related to the protection, advancement, and promotion of those who are equity-seeking based on gender, gender identity, and sexuality.
If you are interested in becoming a member of this Society committee, please send the following documentation to mbrown@nsbs.org and mchai@stewartmckelvey.com:
- A brief expression of interest (max. 1 page) – please describe why you’re interested in joining the Gender Equity Committee, and the attributes and experience you could bring to this committee’s work.
- A brief resume (1-2 pages)
- A completed Skills Matrix
We value diversity on our committees and welcome applications from members of equity-deserving communities. We also accommodate volunteers who wish to attend meetings via video. The Society asks applicants to submit a skills matrix to better understand the skills and backgrounds of members who wish to fill these vacancies.
If you require an accommodation or assistance with preparing an application, please contact our Equity and Access office at equity@nsbs.org.
Any additional questions can be directed to Michelle Chai, co-Chair, mchai@stewartmckelvey.com, or Marla Brown, Director of Equity & Access, mbrown@nsbs.org.
