Resource Summary: Community Health Centers are complex organizations requiring Boards of Directors to be well-oriented to the organization and the Health Center Program, and also equipped, well-versed, and up-to-date on the most significant factors impacting service delivery at community health centers. This requires ongoing training on several important topics. As volunteer Boards of Directors with monthly meetings scheduled, and committee work in between, it is challenging to allocate a large block of time exclusively dedicated to board training. Therefore, to provide the opportunity for all board members to be introduced to selected training topics, it is recommended that a short training session be included as an agenda item at monthly board meetings. This template can help boards determine which topics they prefer to address for each meeting and which ones to schedule for their annual meeting.
