Boards and Committees

Our United Way is run by the people who live and work in this community.
United Way of Central New Mexico is one of 1,400 United Ways across America. But in each of those communities, as at our United Way, the organization is run by the people who live and work in that community. We are not a local chapter of a national organization.

We are a local organization, raising and distributing resources from the people of this community to the people of this community. Literally, thousands of people in central New Mexico are the volunteers who make UWCNM work.

Volunteers are vital to the success of United Way of Central New Mexico. We greatly value the work of community members who dedicate their time and abilities to making Central New Mexico a better place to live.

Below are some of the volunteer boards and committees that help United Way of Central New Mexico to meet needs in our community.

 

Family Advocacy Center

Part of Advocating in your community is creating long-term change. Your United Way helped create this change in partnership with the City of Albuquerque and fourteen onsite agency partners by opening the Albuquerque Family Advocacy Center. The Center is a safe, secure and caring environment that focuses on the needs of victims of interpersonal crime.  The center is committed to providing victims of domestic violence, child abuse, sexual assault and their families with a safe setting to assist in addressing and overcoming the trauma of their experience and break the cycle of violence that destroys families.
