Board of Directors

KEYS Board of Directors operates within a Policy Governance model based on the work of John Carver.  This means the Board plays a leadership role, focusing on the big picture and visions for the future; rather than getting lost in the operational and administrative details of the present. The Board is responsible for directing and protecting the organization in the interests of the community. It encourages diversity of viewpoints and clearly distinguishes board and staff roles.

The key areas of governance responsibility include the following:

  1. Determination of the mission, vision, and values
  2. Strategic planning
  3. Corporate policies development
  4. Selection and evaluation of the Executive Director
  5. Linking the organization with the community
  6. Its ongoing maintenance and development
  7. Compliance with legislation and policy
  8. Ensuring adequate resources are available
  9. Ensuring that proper financial controls are in place
  10. Engaging in advocacy for responsive legislation, policy and resources pertaining to the purpose of KEYS
