Bend Pops Orchestra has created the role of Ombudsperson for the benefit of its members. Kate Lajtha, a member of our viola section, fills the roll.
The Ombudsperson (“Ombuds”) serves as a confidential, neutral, and informal resource for Bend Pops members. The purpose of the Ombuds is to provide members with a safe, supportive space to raise issues or concerns, to explore options for resolution, and, when appropriate, to bring systemic concerns to the attention of the Board for consideration and action.
