BOARD OF DIRECTORS

 

IHELP’s Board of Directors is made up of community members who have a great commitment to the work of IHELP and the St. Louis immigrant community. Board Members are responsible for establishing policy and strategic direction, as well as creating opportunities and cultivating relationships that advance our mission and cause.

Board members believe in our mission of empowering immigrant families, welcoming newcomers, and making English education as accessible as possible. Serving on the board is a great way to get involved and make a meaningful difference for a cause you care about. It’s a wonderful opportunity to gain professional experience, grow in leadership skills, network with other board members, and be part of a mission-driven team creating real change.
