Declaration of Candidacy

Please read the following information carefully. Sign below to declare your candidacy and acceptance of the terms in this section of the application.
Board of Director terms are staggered, with Directors initially serving for either one (1) or two (2) years. As we are still in our “start-up” phase, Board meetings will be held twice a month for one to two hours (maximum) in addition to pre-reads in preparation for the meetings. The expectation is that the Board may adjust the cadence of the meetings and determine what board committees are needed to help facilitate the work of the board. Board members are expected to be timely and present at every meeting. Board of Directors will also participate in fundraising and development activities.

For your reference: Service on BPMT’s Board of Directors is without remuneration, except for travel and accommodation costs in relation to Board of Director’s duties. As a registered organization in California, BPMT is legally prohibited from offering compensation to members of its Board of Directors for their board-related duties. However, the organization covers travel, accommodation, and reimbursement expenses incurred in relation to these duties, ensuring that members can fulfill their responsibilities without additional financial burdens.
