Board of Directors
Our amazing Board of Directors is a group of dedicated volunteers who assist with the policy, strategy, management, and stability of ARC as a non-profit. We are regularly looking for new board members representing a wide variety of backgrounds and experience levels.
Advisory Councils
ARC’s Advisory Council members are dedicated volunteers who support the community centers, citywide initiatives, and environmental learning centers throughout the city of Seattle. Our 37 advisory councils support Seattle Parks and Recreations staff and programs in community centers, parks, pools, and more.
Volunteering with an Advisory Council is a direct opportunity to help create more access for underserved populations and improve the quality of programs and services provided by ARC in partnership with Seattle Parks and Recreation.
Events
ARC hosts a variety of free family events, fundraising events, and more in partnership with Seattle Parks and Recreation and sponsored by many corporate and community sponsors.
