MSS is a 501c3 nonprofit dedicated to providing community and employment services to individuals with a wide range of disabilities. We have been serving the disability community for over 70 years and are looking for volunteers to serve on our Board of Directors. Terms are limited to 4 years. Board members play a vital role in the operations and direction of MSS. Candidates should have strong interpersonal skills, and be passionate about improving the lives and choices of the people served in our program.

Are you a fit for our board?

The biggest asset you bring to MSS is yourself -- your perspectives, experiences, and insights are valuable to our team. The more diverse we are, the more we can act with alignment and connection to our communities.

Some helpful skills we are currently seeking for board service include candidates with Human Resources background and recruitment preferred, experience in the arts and/or relationships with art-focused organizations, fundraising and grant writing or personal or professional experience with disability and/or employment services.

Most of all we are looking for members with a passion for supporting people who have disabilities in achieving their greatest potential.

We are looking for members who will bring a variety of life experiences and perspectives that will enrich our organization. We recognize that we are missing the voices of members of underrepresented communities and identities who could help guide our organization to provide services in more inclusive and culturally competent ways.

Special consideration will be given to candidates who identify as members of historically marginalized communities while also considering experience, skills, and expertise in areas relevant to the disability services field.

Applicants must pass a background check

To apply please send a cover letter expressing your interest and a resume to jjohnson@mssmn.org

*Please identify your interest in this volunteer position in the subject line of your email*
