Board of Trustees

In Unitarian Universalism, our congregations are separate legal private non-profit organizations governed by their own set of by-laws.  We voluntarily choose to be a member congregation of the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA), which serves primarily as a resource to congregations and as a public voice for our principles.

We elect a Board of Trustees to decide upon policy and to carry out the By-Laws. The Board also manages the implementation of the Congregation's Strategic Plan adopted in May 2006.  The congregation has an annual meeting in May to elect Trustees and other positions, and to adopt the annual budget. Occasionally, other congregational meetings are called for specific agendas.
