SPFC’s Teen Board is made up of high school students from our community, and is our only Board of Directors. Members are selected based on a competitive application process (to fill out an application, click here). High school students serving on the Teen Board undertake Board responsibilities, participate in regular educational workshops, and work collaboratively to advance SPFC’s mission.
