Thank you for your interest in serving on Healwell’s Board of Directors. Board service is a symbiotic, rewarding experience that is not only about giving of yourself and your time, but is also an opportunity for personal and professional growth. Completing this form will help you understand the skills and time/resource commitments of this leadership position and will also give us an opportunity to get to know you and what’s important to you.

You may find it helpful to read through the entire application and Board Member Responsibilities (Section two) before you begin to complete the form. You cannot save this form once you have begun it, so plan to spend about 20 minutes completing it. If you feel that your strength is not in the written word and you would prefer to answer the questions by submitting a video recording or in a live conversation over the phone, please send an email to Healwell’s Executive Director, Cal Cates at cal@healwell.org or call Cal at 202-320-7921 and we’ll make it happen.  

This application (or your video and/or phone conversation) will be kept confidential and on file at Healwell. Applications are used by the Board’s Governance Squad to identify and evaluate potential board candidates. All new directors are elected by a majority vote of current board members.

Our Mission:
Touch. Teach. Advocate.
We touch people affected by illness. We teach massage therapists how to provide care safely and effectively. We advocate for access to that care and for a broader role for massage therapists in healthcare.
