Committees

We have standing and appointed committees  that deal with or research long-term, ongoing organizational issues. They each have a leadership structure made up of members and report back to the board through a liaison.

Groups & Networks

We have several subgroups focusing on particular specialties or topics within the organization that members may join. They publish columns in our newsletter, conduct sessions at our annual meeting, and develop resources.
