Are you interested in joining GAC’s Board of Directors?
Our directors commit to a three-year term, and can serve a maximum of two consecutive terms. Our Nominating Committee is always interested in receiving applications for board positions. Except under special circumstances, we elect new directors at our AGM in February. We are happy to receive applications at any time. Apply online now or click here to download our application form. You can also complete the online form below. Please note that previous board experience is welcome but is not a requirement. We are committed to mentoring new board members and providing opportunities to gain experience on a nonprofit board.
Wondering if you’re ready to serve on a nonprofit board? Here are some useful resources that might help guide your decision:

All applications will be reviewed by our Nominating Committee, which will make a recommendation to the Board based on current and upcoming needs and requirements. Once the board has reviewed and approved the recommendations of the Nominating Committee, the slate will be brought forward for election by the membership at the Annual General Meeting. No applications or nominations are accepted from the floor at the meeting.
