Leadership Connect Information and Registration

Leadership Connect (LC) is designed as an online matching system designed to align community members’ skills and interests with relevant volunteer leadership opportunities for local non-profit organizations and municipalities.  The system  enables matches in two ways -

1) position postings that are open to the public can be posted on a bulliten board. Examples include Rotary Memberships, or Citizens committees, etc,.. 

2) organizations can search the database to find candidates to fulfill specific leadership positions.  Examples include open Board of Directors seats, or Chairs of Committees, etc,. 

Below are some commonly asked questions about this service...  

Who can participate?  We invite all members of the community seeking to make a difference in their community by offering their leadership capabilities in volunteer roles.

How does it work?  Community members complete profiles (the link to the form is below) that are stored in our database.  Then local organizations - such as non-profit organizations and/or municipalities - key in specific search criteria to find community members that 'match'  the skills, experience and interests they are looking for.  This service is designed to 'make the connection'.  Both parties - the individual and the organization - will still need to follow whatever vetting process they have to determine if this is the right match for them.  Neither party is obligated to accept the other after the connection is initiated. 

Is there any cost to this program?  There is no charge to community members to complete a profile.  An annual fee of $50 will be charged to organizations to use the system.  This fee is to cover system maintenance of this database service.  This fee is being waived for the remainder of 2011.
