Douglas Park Community Association is looking for new Board members!

We’re a small, welcoming community centre with a friendly board and caring, dedicated staff. Our mission is simply to provide affordable and quality facilities and programming to meet the diverse needs of the people of the Douglas Park community and to encourage community use and participation of the Douglas Park Community Centre.

What happens at Douglas Park Community Centre?

We are jointly operated by the Vancouver Park Board and the Douglas Park Community Association, and we provide pre-school and school-aged child care, and a wide variety of programming for teens and youth, pre-school children, adults, seniors, and people of all ages with disabilities. We are also proud to have a pottery studio, a fitness room, and a gymnasium.

What does the Board do?

We provide oversight and strategic direction to keep Douglas Park Community Centre financially sound and running efficiently, ethically, and true to its mission.

Who are we looking for?

While we’d especially love to hear from people with experience in finance, human resources, or early childhood education, we welcome anyone with skills, perspectives, and lived experiences who can help us serve our diverse community. We’re proud of what Douglas Park Community Centre represents and provides to the community, but we want your fresh ideas and unique perspective to help make it even better.

What’s the commitment?

Board members are expected to attend 8-10 evening meetings per year and join (ideally chair) at least one committee. Our standing committees include Finance, Human Resources, Programming, Licensed Childcare and Strategic Plan Advancement.

Interested?

Send a brief letter of interest to DouglasParkCommunityCentre@vancouver.ca.
If you have questions about us, email us—we’d love to chat!
