Join Our Team!

As we build our team of Board Directors, volunteers, and staff, every individual will play a critical role in realizing our vision to eliminate systemic barriers in the criminal justice system. myRESET is currently seeking passionate and motivated individuals to serve on our Board of Directors.

We are specifically seeking youth (ages 18-29) with lived experience navigating the justice system, and will prioritize those with a legal background and/or experience working with justice-impacted individuals. To ensure we can adequately support justice-impacted individuals, we want to ensure their voices are included in all strategic, operational, and governance decisions we make as an organization. Our priority is to engage and recruit the very best of our city’s diverse and talented young people.

Board terms will be two (2) years in total and renewable twice.

  • believe in myRESET’s mission and vision to reimagine the criminal justice system;

  • want to enhance your experience with strategic thinking, problem-solving, and decision-making activities;

  • have 3-4 hours to spend on myRESET work each month (could be more depending on the level of engagement in committee work, etc); and,

  • have previous volunteer experience and/or expertise in non-profit governance, fundraising, operations, communications, community engagement, etc.

Our expectations of myRESET Board Members include the following:

  • attend monthly Board, Committee, and Annual General Meetings (full Board meetings occur on the third Tuesday of every month);

  • actively participate in Board by joining at least one (1) Committee to support with raising funds, amplifying our message, and/or operationalizing our pilot program;
