Join Our Portland High School Teen Board of Directors
Our Portland Teen Board of Directors are full-time high school students attending 9th – 12th grades in various school throughout Portland. Each of them has eagerly stepped forward and said, “Yes! I want to make a difference in my school and my community!”
By dedicating themselves to Beyond Differences, they are becoming inclusive leaders, embracing differences, and inspiring their friends, teachers, and parents to end social isolation.
We’re passionate about leading the movement to bring attention to this issue and put an end to kids feeling left out.
Join the board!
Portland Teens, become a Beyond Differences Teen Board Member! On the Teen Board you will gain skills in leadership, inclusion, public speaking, and learn how to advocate for change in your community.
You will be required to come to our Teen Board meetings once a month and to participate and sign up for Beyond Differences community service events. Teen board members are also required to attend a fall retreat, in which students lead, set goals for the year, and bond with other teen board members, so they can model Beyond Differences values of acceptance and inclusion.
