Governance
The Washington
Food Coalition is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors. In
addition to managing their own emergency food programs, WFC Board
members devote their time and energy to statewide efforts to
alleviate hunger. Board members are responsible for determining WFC
policy in human resources, planning, finance, community relations,
and organizational operations.
The WFC Board of
Directors is elected from the coalition membership. The Board is
representative of the state through the creation of 14 districts and
the addition of several at-large seats. Each district elects two
representatives, a Primary and an Alternate. Board members are
elected to a two-year term in alternating years. The Board also
elects four At-Large representatives from the coalition membership.
The board then selects its officers from the elected
representatives. To see who represents your area, or for a complete
