Board of Directors for the 2026-2027 Governance Year​

​

ARCH is inviting applications for volunteer Board Directors for the 2026–2027 governance year.

​

ARCH is an 11-bed, non-profit residential hospice providing compassionate, high-quality palliative and end-of-life care. In addition to residential hospice services, ARCH delivers a comprehensive Supportive Care Program that includes grief and bereavement support, family services, and final wish fulfillment. ARCH is also home to the Collaborative Care Algoma program, supporting healthcare and community partners through education, capacity building, and Advance Care Planning. While partially government funded, ARCH relies significantly on community fundraising and is currently developing a new strategic plan to guide its next phase of growth.

​

The volunteer Board of Directors is responsible for governance and strategic oversight. Directors serve a three-year term (with the option to renew once) and attend approximately nine Board meetings annually, as well as the Annual General Meeting. Directors also participate on at least one Board committee.

​

Board members are expected to uphold ARCH’s mission, vision, and values, contribute thoughtfully to governance discussions, and act in the best interest of the organization while maintaining confidentiality and managing conflicts of interest appropriately.

​

We welcome applications from individuals of all backgrounds. At this time, we are particularly interested in candidates with experience in clinical or palliative care, supportive care (such as human services, social work, or spiritual care), legal expertise related to healthcare or governance, and engineering experience related to facilities, infrastructure, risk, or quality and safety.
