About Us: Board of Directors

Mainstay Life Services operates under the guidance of an experienced and diverse Board of Directors. Our board volunteers are highly committed to our organization, and active in their involvement. Board committees meet regularly on agency issues including programming, finance, and development. They are also involved in governance, policy-making, and fundraising.

Our board boasts prominent community members with backgrounds relevant to our organization's needs including: health care, education, banking, community development, real estate, law, finance, public relations, and mental health services. In addition, several board members have a family member with a developmental disability.
