Shakti’s Directors’ Circle (Board of Directors) is a critical component in the evolving, innovative, and woman-centered model of leadership that is the foundation of our model of transformation. The Directors’ Circle works in partnership with staff and volunteers to implement strategic initiatives that further the mission and vision of the organization. Two seats on the Directors’ Circle are specifically dedicated to graduates of and/or women in the Shakti Rising Apprenticeship program.
