CLN Volunteer & Consultant Needs

In addition to the needs for you to do outreach in your community and the other items outlined on other pages, CLN has volunteer and consultant roles within the organization for which we need people. We do not have an office but operate from various locations where volunteers and consultants live. So where you live is usually not much of a factor in filling these roles. Board roles are uncompensated, except that out-of-pocket expenses are reimbursed where needed.

Secretary

 

Secretary is a Board Officer position, so this person will also serve on the Board, which usually meets quarterly by conference calls but occasionally holds residential meetings. Board members serve with no financial compensation. Duties include:

​

  • Taking minutes at Board and Executive Committee meetings;

  • Coordinating Board votes, either at the teleconference meetings or via email: presenting the motion, tallying the votes, and announcing the results;

  • Announcing upcoming meetings to the Board;

  • Drawing up and circulating the agenda for Board meetings;

  • Keeping copies of the minutes, bylaws, and other significant correspondence (in the future, this might include copies of endorsement forms by individual endorsers or member groups, although the last Secretary did not do that);

  • Contacting new Board nominees about the possibility of joining the Board; and

  • Serving on the CL Executive Committee.

​

If you have questions about this position, or are interested in volunteering, please contact our President Christy Yao Pelliccioni by email.

Board Member

​

We have a working Board, and could use more committed members. Board members should:

​

  • Be fully committed to our Mission Statement;

  • Take on some significant responsibility with CLN;

  • Normally participate in Board meetings (whether in person or by conference call);

  • Respond to e-mails stating "Vote Required" or "Response Needed."

​

If you have questions about this position, or are interested in volunteering, please contact our President Christy Yao Pelliccioni by email.
