Join Habitat’s Board of Directors
We have openings on our Board of Directors and are looking for passionate, engaged members to guide our work in the Capital District.
Our Board provides leadership, direction and oversight for our local affiliate of Habitat for Humanity. It is a governance board, not an operational one, which means that Board members aren’t expected to carry out the day-to-day operations. Board members are advocates, thought leaders and ambassadors.

• A government employee is anyone who is employed by a governmental entity on a full or part time basis, even if that individual’s job function is not related to housing, HUD programs, or other federal funding or appointed to a position for which they are compensated.
• An appointee is anyone who has been appointed to the board of directors by a governmental entity even if that person is not otherwise a public official or governmental employee (e.g. a member appointed to the board by the local mayor).
