A great way to serve the LGBTQI legal community and become more involved in BALIF is to join BALIF's Board of Directors. BALIF's Directors are elected by the BALIF membership, and each Director holds office for two years. Any BALIF member is welcome to run for the Board or nominate another BALIF member. BALIF seeks a board that reflects the diversity of our LGBTQI legal community, and we specifically encourage people of color, women, transgender people, and non-binary/gender non-conforming people to run for the Board. 

This election, we will be seeking candidates for the following positions:

  • 4 Gender Non-Conforming Candidates
  • 4 Female Candidates
  • 4 Male Candidates 
  • 3 Law Students (1 GNC, 1 Female, 1 Male)

To run for the Board or nominate someone else, please send a candidate statement of up to 250 words to our secretary (secretary@balif.organd BALIF's Administrator, Katie Carlson (balif@balif.org) by April 1, 2019 at 5:30 pm. BALIF's bylaws require gender parity on the Board, with a certain number of positions allocated to Directors who identify as male, female, or other genders (a broad category including but not limited to non-binary, genderqueer, gender variant, and gender non-conforming). So if you are seeking a position, please indicate the category under which you plan to run.

Thinking about seeking a position? Know someone who would make a fabulous addition to the Board? Want to learn more about BALIF and what's involved in being on the Board? Please contact Katie at balif@balif.org.
