Participants of the program graduate with the knowledge to serve a board immediately – and with confidence. Classes run monthly from September to April, each session focusing on one topic necessary to learn in order to be an effective board member.  BDTP graduates have made an impact at The Mission Inn Foundation, The Unforgettables Foundation, and The Riverside Area Rape Crisis Center, just to name a few.
