New Board Members Sought for Milk Banking Movement - Closed

THE SUBMISSIONS PROCESS HAS NOW ENDED. THANK YOU TO ALL APPLICANTS. 

The final slate of candidates will be determined by the end of June and publicly announced after all applicants have been informed.  

HMBANA is seeking new board members with expertise in the health care, legal and business fields, nonprofit management, research, milk donation, or other skill sets that serve HMBANA’s mission. Board members are sought to enhance diversity of thought and representation and must bring an awareness either by experience or expertise of the need for expanded access to donor human milk in healthcare settings.

As an equity-focused voice for donor human milk access, use, research, and policy advancement, HMBANA’s organizational focus continues shifting from nonprofit milk bank operations to advocacy and leadership. By joining HMBANA, board members will engage in ongoing dialogue and decision-making that help continue to shape the standards and principles of nonprofit milk banking in the United States and Canada. 

Board members may be called upon to externally represent HMBANA in public arenas, to volunteer in the conceptualization and implementation of ground-breaking conferences and publications, to participate in research related to human and donor milk, and to otherwise help continue to form and run the backbone of the movement of nonprofit milk banking.
