About us - CFCA board of directors

Statement of the Board Chairperson, Scott Wasserman
Governance and management were positively impacted when the board adopted Dr. John Carver's model of governance. CFCA has clearly defined the role of the board and staff, which keeps the staff accountable to the board. The board determines the ends and staff determines the means to achieve the ends. The role of the board is to set limits on the means. Integrity, accountability and clear communication are responsibilities of any well-managed board.
