Dreams of Hope has been serving LGBTQIA+ youth for over 20 years in the Southwestern Pennsylvania region.
Through the power of the arts, Dreams of Hope provides the region’s lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning, asexual, and allied (LGBTQA+) youth a welcoming environment to grow in confidence, express themselves, and develop as leaders.
We are looking to expand our working Board to support our staff and mission. We are interested in speaking more with you if you have experience in:
- finance/accounting,
- legal,
- fundraising,
- HR/organizational development,
- arts/education programming,
- working with youth of color,
- other skills!
We want the people on the Board to reflect the young people in our programming. Disabled, BIPOC, queer, trans, femme- or masculine-of-center, poor, anti-racist, and all the many intersections of these identities are representative of the young people in our programs. At this time, we are specifically recruiting people of the global majority to join our board (spring and summer 2025). This is part of how we live our values. Queer liberation is intersectional, and diverse leadership and governance are essential to our work.We are recruiting on a rolling basis. If you have an interest in Board volunteership and bettering the lives of LGBTQIA+ young people, please complete this form and a Board member will be in contact within a few weeks. In the meantime, we would love for you to attend our upcoming events and introduce yourselves! Thank you!
