Board of Directors
SCF has assembled an inclusive board to reflect the populations and geographies we serve. Our board members have extensive economic and community development expertise and they can provide the unique skill sets needed to support the strategic needs of our operations. As a certified CDFI, SCF finds it critical to maintain a board with a high degree of direct contact with CDFIs—all our Board members have experience working within a certified CDFI or working for CDFIs in a consulting capacity.
