Description of officer responsibilities

The mission of the INBA is to create a non-discriminatory environment that fosters, promotes and supports a diverse business community in Spokane.

The Alliance will do this by working toward the following goals:
1. Strengthen and expand our member businesses and careers by providing venues for members to meet socially and professionally.
2. Break down negative stereotypes of the GLBTQ community through educational outreach
3. Serve as role models for GLBTQ/Allied youth and the community at large.

The current all volunteer board consists of the following 10 professionals.
