CEO/Executive Director/Board Comments
| The greatest challenge for the Executive Director is non-compensation for the work performed and not having funds available to compensate others to perform clerical and technical tasks. Currently we address these challenges by enlisting volunteer assistance as they relate to managing and overseeing the operations of the organization. Fortunately, our Board is made up of people who are capable willing to volunteer their skills and expertise in meeting the needs of the organization. |
