The Delaware Chapter of the Sierra Club is dedicated to building a powerful and inclusive environmental movement and needs board members from diverse backgrounds and experiences to reach our highest potential.
The Chapter Executive Committee (ExCom) sets the priorities, policies, and budget (with member input) that enables volunteers and staff to carry out the mission of the Sierra Club’s Delaware Chapter. The ExCom also reviews endorsements of candidates for Chapter elective political offices and helps maintain our fundraising and outreach efforts. All ExCom members remain committed to the Jemez Principals of Democratic Organizing to help move our work at the Chapter through a lens of equity and inclusiveness.
