SOAR is looking for new members to join our Board of Directors! Are you Interested?
SOAR is looking for new members to join our Board of Directors! Our board members play an important role in governing the organization and helping us achieve our mission.
SOAR uses its writing for healing workshops and retreats to elevate the voices of black women and girls to claim their space in environments where they feel disempowered and unseen. As a witness to the trauma, conflict, and confusion some young students faced, in 1995, SOAR’s founder created a writing for healing curriculum as a pathway to healing. As a result, SOAR has served a variety of schools and organizations that range from disconnected youth, domestic violence survivors, women in recovery, incarcerated women to youth aging out of foster care.
​
There are a variety of opportunities for board members to support SOAR. Board service is adapted for the individual and board participation looks different for every member. Our board members are diverse in identity, background, and professional skillsets. Our board members have varying degrees of familiarity with Robert Moses’ work, with the field of dance, and with the performing arts scene at large.
Want to learn more? SOAR’s current board members invite you to fill out this brief interest form. After you’ve submitted the form, we’ll get in touch and discuss what it might look like for you to join the board.
