<html><body style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; ">Hello dear colleagues -<div><br></div><div>So here are my 2 cents / pesos / rubles to add, from my experience on - and serving as facilitator-consultant to - youth and youth-serving organizational Boards, where young people have been involved at many levels. I am no expert - this is just what I have experienced and observed. Just a few things I wish to share to keep in mind when thinking of including young people on a Board of Directors</div><div><br></div><div>The intention, as I understand it, is to *not* simply place young people on Boards (and other committees or volunteer or staff positions) in a way that tokenizes them. </div><div><br></div><div>(For those of you for whom English is not a home language - to tokenize someone means placing them in a symbolic role because of their characteristic - often meant as a negative term because the whole person is not being valued - they are just being used as an image)</div><div><br></div><div>And to me, it is important for the strength of an organization to always seek Board members who have the <u>skills</u> the Board needs - rather than just great people or public figures or charismatic people.</div><div><br></div><div>To me, diversity is crucial - differences in culture and experience enrich the inquiry, the product, the organization, the group thinking...</div><div>But to me it would be tokenizing - and often I see it is unfair to the individual - to seek and place a young person on a Board (or a panel or a committee) if they are simply young (or female, or a former client or whatever) - if they do not also have the skills or resources (financial, participatory, knowledge) to strengthen the Board.</div><div><br></div><div>There are amazing young people who are also incredible at things that Boards need, if you wish that.</div><div><br></div><div>And I have seen young people (and other community members) on Boards placed there and then not listened to, or given training in vocabulary, policy or other concepts crucial to their roles, or listened to with less emphasis than the business people or the adult people. And that is not diversity. It is not inclusion. And it wears on the individual and they wonder why the heck they were chosen, if not for their full selves.</div><div><br></div><div>Remember also that most Boards have a fiduciary (fiscal) responsibility - if something goes wrong with the organization financially, Board members' own personal finances can be at risk.</div><div>Some Boards have Board insurance, some do not.</div><div><br></div><div>Also many Boards have a requirement that Board Members donate or raise a certain amount for fund-raising. Or buy lunch at the place the Board meets. </div><div>Does the young person (or other community member) in mind have the financial ability to do these things?</div><div><br></div><div>I have seen it play out as a class issue - a cultural assumption on the part of very well-meaning, very nice fellow Board members. Someone's financial level, or how much they understand a Board's existing vocabulary, or assumptions about understanding of budgeting concepts - have in my observation often put the young person (or other community member) at the disadvantage for engaging equally in the conversations, decisions and other work of the Board.</div><div><br></div><div>Consider also the value of Advisory Boards - consisting totally of an organization's client or community members. A very valuable thing. So if the client or youth voice is important in the work of the organization (and I hope it is) there are many different possibilities for inclusion.</div><div><br></div><div>And consider also that when we say 'young person' we may be in our heads thinking of different ages - 12? 19? 26? 30? - so the inclusion of 'young people' on Boards may be very different depending on our definition for that organization's specific purposes and interests.</div><div><br></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 255); font-size: 14px; "><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: medium; font-weight: normal; "><div style="display: inline !important; "><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#811107" size="1"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 9px; "><i><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#000000"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: normal; "><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px; "><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 10px/normal 'Trebuchet MS'; color: rgb(155, 44, 1); display: inline !important; "><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#000000"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">So all I am saying is - if you feel you can truly truly support the young people you wish to have join your Board (so they can be equal, not a 'mascot' to the Board, not exhausted by trying to keep up with the others who speak and afford things at a totally different level), and if you can truly truly select a young person who has knowledge, skills and abilities that your Board needs, if you can always be learning about what that diverse individual may need in order to truly be an equal player, then - if it fits their personality and their own learning / professional / growth goals - being on a Board may enrich both the young person and the work of the organization. Sure, Board meetings can be exceedingly boring for most folks. But for some folks it is like participating in student government - they love it.</span></font></div></span></font></span></font></i></span></font></div></span></b></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 255); font-size: 14px; "><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: medium; font-weight: normal; "><div style="display: inline !important; "><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#811107" size="1"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 9px; "><i><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#000000"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: normal; "><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px; "><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 10px/normal 'Trebuchet MS'; color: rgb(155, 44, 1); display: inline !important; "><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#000000"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><br></span></font></div></span></font></span></font></i></span></font></div></span></b></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 255); font-size: 14px; "><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: medium; font-weight: normal; "><div style="display: inline !important; "><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#811107" size="1"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 9px; "><i><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#000000"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: normal; "><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px; "><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 10px/normal 'Trebuchet MS'; color: rgb(155, 44, 1); display: inline !important; "><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#000000"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">I have seen Boards who thoughtfully include the unique and skilled individual young person - and provide them with ongoing support to equalize class and financial differences - benefit from working with their younger partners.
