Join the queer YUKON Board
The Queer Yukon Society (QYS) is planning to host our 2020/2021 Annual General Meeting (AGM) virtually at 3 pm, Sunday, December 5th. Mark your calendars, cause we can’t wait to share everything we’ve been up to over the past year and what we have planned for 2021/2022!
At this time, we are additionally putting out the call for prospective board members! The QYS Board is made up of 8 members who are elected during the AGM. If you or someone you know is interested in joining the board of our exciting and dynamic organization and contributing your time, energy and skills to Queer Yukon, we would love to hear from you!
Email us to receive an information package for prospective Board Members! Additionally, you will find a link to a google form below which you can complete (before 5pm on Tues. Nov. 16th) if you would like Queer Yukon to publicize your interest in being on the Board and any additional information you choose to provide. You do NOT have to complete this form to be a candidate for the Board; you can run for a Board position simply by putting your name forward during the AGM. You must, however, attend the AGM to be eligible for election to the Board.
If you’re curious about what being on a board is like and would like to discuss with one of our current board members, please send an email to leadership@queeryukon.com or to info@queeryukon.com - we’d be happy to answer your questions or set up a time to chat.
Everyone is welcome to put their name forward, but we particularly encourage folks from all sections of the LGBTQIA2S+ community, as well as those identifying with: Black, Indigenous, & People of Colour, women, Two Spirit / Indigiqueer people, Trans/Non-binary people, people whose first language is not English, and people with disabilities. Additionally, we encourage folks living in Yukon communities other than Whitehorse to apply - during the pandemic we have been conducting our board meetings virtually and intend to continue this practice going forward. Please note that serving on the Board is a volunteer position, and Board members must be over 18 years of age.
