Board of Directors

Board of Directors

The UUFC is self-governed by the congregation. In its Bylaws, the congregation delegates certain responsibilities to an elected Board of Directors. The Board meets each month to manage the affairs of the Fellowship. Its roles are to make policy, authorize expenditures within the annual budget, and maintain an overview of all Fellowship programs and projects.
