Are you passionate about our mission to support women? Apply to join our Board! Jubilee Women's Center is looking for board members to help raise our visibility in the community, make new connections and bolster our fundraising efforts.

Established in 1983, Jubilee's holistic transitional housing program gives women the stability and time they need to heal, grow and rebuild their lives. With supportive learning opportunities, employment preparation, and guidance from care managers, program participants work toward a living wage career and independent housing.

As we strive to make our leadership more reflective of the community we serve, we particularly encourage
applicants to apply who have lived experience with poverty and/or homelessness and/or who come from a diverse racial or ethnic background.

Our Board meets bi-monthly in Seattle's Capitol Hill neighborhood.

Reply here and our Board Development Chair will reach out to you. Thank you!
