Join our Board
There's a Seat at our Table!
We're looking for leaders who are passionate about serving and eager to use their expertise to improve the lives of kin and grandfamilies raising disadvantaged children.
ISDD is Metro Atlanta's award-winning kinship family services agency. Kinship families are formed as the result of a traumatic or unexpected event requiring children to be placed with a relative, usually a grandparent, or in the foster care system. Most children never enter the child welfare system, but families outside of foster care receive few supports. Caregivers struggle to obtain the services they need to raise children they never expected to have. ISDD fills the gap with evidence-based supportive services designed to ensure that children remain out of the foster care system and with the people who love them.
ISDD's volunteer Board of Directors is actively involved with organizational governance and are expected to attend and actively participate in board meetings (6 times a year, currently virtual), participate in at least one board committee, make a personal contribution and raise at least $400 in their first year of service.
The nominating committee is now accepting applications. Apply HERE. Contact us at info@isdd-home.org for more information. We look forward to hearing from you!
