LeadingAge Kansas Board elections will be held in conjunction with the 2021 Spring Conference and Membership meeting in April. Several vacancies need to be filled. The Call for Nominations closes March 5th.

As you know, your LeadingAge Kansas board and staff team have been intensely involved in serving members’ pandemic-related needs for education, advocacy, trouble shooting and information during the past 11 months. As we slowly emerge (we hope) from the full on catastrophe, we have to keep up with our pandemic effort, while at the same time, seriously rethink who LeadingAge Kansas is, what our overall priorities are, and how we should serve members now and in the future. This is exciting work that lies ahead for the board, in partnership with staff leadership. 

We need talented, committed people to join the board to help lead the Association at this critical time. If you want to be at the table to think about big issues, how they will impact our members’ future, and the way LeadingAge Kansas should serve, we strongly urge you to apply. Find more information and apply by clicking here.    

If you have questions feel free to contact Nominating Committee Chair Nate Glendening, Board Chair Crystal Packard or Debra Zehr.
