Board of Directors
Women's March Minnesota continues our grassroots effort to grow our movement for human rights for all people, led by women and gender non-conforming folks. The important work of educating, amplifying, and activating to improve and support the lives of women, girls, and gender nonconforming folks requires thoughtful and intentional intersectional activism. Ending oppression is a long-term process that can only be achieved through collaborative action. We are dedicated to this movement and are looking for Board volunteers, community members, activists, and leaders as we chart a new course into what 2022 and beyond looks like for Women’s March Minnesota.
Organizational Summary
Women’s March Minnesota is an independent stand alone IRS designated 501(c)(3) organization, and is 100% volunteer run and led. Decisions are made in alignment with our Unity Principles.
The fight for equity, equality, and justice resides in all communities. Women's March Minnesota is committed to ensuring that the voices of women from all backgrounds and identities are heard. We seek to forge new alliances that will enable us to work together for equal justice in the months and years ahead.
Position Overview
Women’s March MN seeks volunteer board members for our 501(c) (3) non-profit. Board members are unpaid volunteer leaders within the organization. Time commitment is approximately 10-15 hours a month (WMM and community events) and varies throughout the year. Most Board meetings are held on online conference format. Terms run for two years and Board members are expected to serve on committees or projects. Meetings are arranged based on members schedules.
Board training and mentoring is provided.
Our Values
We believe that women’s rights are human rights. We must create a society in which women — including Black, Native, disabled, those living in poverty, immigrant, Muslim, Jewish, and queer and trans women — are free and able to care for and nurture their families, however they are formed, in safe and healthy environments free from barriers.
Our goal at Women's March Minnesota is to know when to listen and when to lead. As a women's organization dedicated to intersectional feminism, and protecting the rights of Minnesota women, we work to raise the voices of the strong, dedicated groups doing important social justice, human rights and equality work in Minnesota.
