Trellis focuses on creating generational impact by strengthening economic stability, well-being, mental health, and belonging so that all people can flourish. Through this continuum of support, Trellis has helped thousands of people each year to exit poverty, navigate out of crisis, and move from isolation into community.

As volunteers, Board Directors commit approximately five to eight hours per month to Board-related activities, including preparation for and participation in Board and Committee meetings and participation in Trellis and community events. Directors are expected to serve on two subcommittees (Governance; Human Resources; or Audit & Finance) of the Board. Active participation and engagement by ALL Board Directors is critical.
Based on the Trellis Board's most recent skills matrix review, preference for the upcoming Board appointments will be given to candidates demonstrating strategic skillset and experience in one or more of the following areas: (1) legal expertise; (2) deep understanding around affordable housing and related real estate development issues; (3) Government Relations expertise; (4) Audit Partner/Senior Manager finance and accounting expertise (CPA designation required); (5) deep understanding of full suite of Human Resources strategy; and (6) Community connector with the strong desire and ability to mobilize philanthropy. While previous Board governance experience is not required, successful candidates must understand and exhibit the qualities of a strong governor.
