Stonegate Community Health Centre [SCHC] is a charitable organization serving the Stonegate-Queensway community. Our vision is to create a healthy, active and inclusive community where physical, mental and social well-being is achieved. Stonegate works to improve the well-being of our community. Together, we identify individual and community needs and respond by providing accessible and inclusive health services and health promotion programs.

Who we are looking for:
We are currently recruiting leaders to join our Board of Directors. We believe that social sector organizations can better achieve their mission by drawing on the skills, talents, and perspectives of a broader and more diverse range of leaders, and that the diversity of viewpoints that come from different life experiences and cultural backgrounds strengthen board deliberations and decision making. The individual leaders who compose nonprofit boards reflect an organization’s values and beliefs about who should be empowered and entrusted with its most important decisions.

What we offer:
● An opportunity to exercise leadership skills by participating in the governance and strategic decision- making processes of the organization.
● A platform to network with people who have the same passion for community health and wellbeing.
● An easy-going, positive team-orientated and collaborative environment with an opportunity to serve your community and have a voice on the direction of the organization.

Your commitment:
• Strengthen the organization’s position by providing organizational leadership and advisement.
• Attend and participate in regular Board and Committee meetings and special events (approx. 5-10 hours/month).
• Ensure that the organization represents the various perspectives, challenges and interests of the community.
• Help to oversee the development and annual budgets, participate on one board committee; serve on ad-hoc committees as required.

Candidates must:
• Be a resident or work in South Etobicoke, reflecting the vibrant diversity of the community we serve.
• Bring a personal interest and some knowledge of community health centers, strategic planning, health care, accounting/finance, human resources, fundraising and/or non-profit management.

A few of this year’s priorities are Board members who have experience: with strategic planning; as a client of Stonegate; with the people we serve (e.g. lived experience, immigration to Canada, faced barriers to accessing health care etc.); or with knowledge or experience with fundraising. We are also looking for gender diversity.

How to apply: Stonegate CHC is an inclusive organization, and we invite everyone who is interested to apply. Please indicate your interest by completing the Board Application Survey. If you have any questions you can email the board at Board@stonegatechc.org.
