  • President-Elect (one-year term; three-year commitment as President-Elect, President, and Past President);

  • Communications Chair (weekly digest, Twitter, LinkedIn)
  • Community Engagement Chair (Evaluation Without Borders, Career Connections, scholarships)
  • Evaluation without Borders Coordinator (pro bono evaluation support program)

Washington Evaluators is committed to enhancing diversity and inclusion of individuals from underrepresented groups on our Board of Directors in order to strengthen the impact and benefits of our services and resources. We strongly encourage nominees who identify as a person from an underrepresented group to consider serving in a Board position.

Please note that the Board is continuing to host virtual Board meetings and events, and a few in-person events. 

If you are interested in volunteering with the Board, but unsure if a Board position fits your schedule, we also have several Committee Chairs who are always interested in speaking with potential volunteers. Click here to let us know if you're interested in volunteering, and we'll have a committee chair contact you.
