Transparency & Service Data

The Board of Trustees holds this organization in trust on behalf of the entire Broomfield community.  In that spirit, the Board seeks greater transparency with our community.  Therefore, FISH offers the following:

1. It invites members of the community to attend its Board of Trustees meetings, which are held at the Paul Derda Recreation Center.  In order to assure adequate seating, we ask that you contact Executive Director, Terry Kiernan at terry.kiernan@broomfieldfish.org to inform him of your interest in attending.  Specifics about time and location can be provided.

2. Below is client service data, which may be of interest to the community.
