Board Committees

Board committees support board members in their work in governance and oversight.  Each committee has one board member liaison and a committee member that serves as the chairperson.  

The chairperson’s priorities and focus in leading should align with the governing board to carry out the intent of the subcommittee and to increase the likelihood of success.  Board committees establish goals and benchmarks to measure success.
