ORGANIZATION: Canadian Parents for French

image_20250131102936

Canadian Parents for French (CPF) is calling for individuals to serve on its National Board of Directors. We seek those committed to promoting opportunities for youth to learn and use French.

The National Board of Canadian Parents for French is responsible for the governance and strategic direction of a national network of provincial and territorial branches with members across Canada. We are seeking individuals from diverse backgrounds with a genuine interest in promoting French language learning and who are able to lead and innovate as the organization strives to embrace new ways of advancing its mission in a changing political and sociocultural environment.

We are actively seeking to diversify and expand the perspectives on our Board in ways that will extend its reach and ability to serve all those who call Canada home and wish to access French second language education.

Candidates should value lifelong learning and the importance of the French language in Canadian society. Applicants who have led organizational or institutional change efforts are particularly welcome as are those who have experience championing equity, diversity, inclusion and decolonization in an institutional, educational or business environment. Candidates should possess a strong leadership and teamwork ethic, experience in change and risk management, along with effective communication skills, ideally in both English and French.
