Board of Directors

CHF Canada is a co-operative, owned and controlled by our members. The board governs CHF Canada according to Canadian law and the by-laws and rules approved by the members. They are elected by the members to oversee the operation of CHF Canada between meetings. The Board sets priorities for CHF Canada based on resolutions passed by the members on the AGM. The board hires and supervises the executive director. More about the duties of a board member.

The board of directors of CHF Canada has 16 members, all representing the full membership. Ten directors are elected regionally, one from each province. Five serve at large. A director of aboriginal ancestry is elected by housing co-ops with a percentage of aboriginals among their membership.

The board meets at least four times a year, usually in Ottawa.
