Board of Trustees

Our voluntary Board of Trustees governs the PKD Foundation. Trustees represent a variety of professional backgrounds. Each board member serves a three-year volunteer term. The Board of Trustees meets in a central location twice a year, and by teleconference each January. Members of the Board of Trustees are assigned to committees that meet by teleconference at various times throughout the year.
