Meet BMCA Volunteers and Staff

About the Board of Directors

The Directors of the Board are members first, and volunteers second. As a working Board (not a financially contributing board), board members pay their membership fees and contribute their time, thought and individual skills to BMCA’s mission and vision. The board aims to consider the breadth of members' voices, experiences, and perspectives as they work to uphold the value of the BMC® work (and its trademark), and look toward the future of BMC and BMCA.

Our Mission:

Our mission includes:

● maintaining high standards of professional competence and excellence;

● providing resources, information and avenues of communication about BMC®;

● improving access to BMC®; and

● educating the public.
