Forty Plus of Philadelphia, Inc. is an all-volunteer, member-run and member-supported organization. We employ no paid staff. Each active member is required to contribute ten hours per week to the operation of the organization, including:

• Attending committee meetings
• Providing office support (e.g., answering phones and e-mail)
• Development and committee work

Officers are also expected to perform their duties at the Forty Plus office.

We require that all active members attend a weekly meeting Monday morning from 9:00 a.m. to noon. The weekly meeting consists of three segments:

• One hour to discuss chapter business
• A one-hour accountability session, where members update one another on progress towards their goals and set new goals for the week ahead
• A one-hour professional development presentation

In order to benefit from the peer support and interaction we offer job-seekers, members are encouraged to use the Forty Plus office and resources as much as possible when engaged in job search activities.

Active members serve as chapter officers and head the organization's committees. Members are encouraged to serve on one or more committees as their time allows. The active members elect their own President, who in turn appoints a Vice President, an Assistant Treasurer and Committee Chairpersons. There are seven committees:
