Opportunities
In this economy jobs are tough to come by, but have no fear, the sisterhood is here to help. One of the main goals of SFWPC is Economic Independence and that’s kinda hard when you don’t have a job. So we’re connecting the dots between cool girls and cool jobs here with some great opportunities passed along by your fellow SFWPC girls. Remember, when we support each other, we are better for it.
San Francisco Wants You to Get Involved!
Mayor Lee announced the launch of a centralized online database of City boards and commissions including vacancies and appointments to advisory bodies for the City and County of San Francisco. To search this great new resource, go to www.sfgov.org/commissionsdatabase or call 3-1-1. It’s an important goal of the past Women’s Policy Summits to add to the number of women in the San Francisco government “pipeline” and searching this site is an exciting new tool.
Sit on a Board, Commission, or Task Force
Calling all women leaders! There are many opportunities to serve the community while obtaining valuable experience in city government. If you have a particular interest, there is a Commission Vacancy for you! Take a look at the information at this site: http://www.sfbos.org/index.aspx?page=3045. The process is described and an application is available for you to download. If you are interested, email Benj Jurcisin at benj@sfwpc.org and she’ll help get the process underway. It’s an important goal of the past Women’s Policy Summits to add to the number of women in the San Francisco government “pipeline” and serving on commissions is a great way to start. And if you don’t, Benj will come after you anyway… so let’s get those resumes going
