Committees

There are four standing committees, three of which are open to members in good standing.

  • Executive Committee – Consists of the President, Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer of the Board of Directors. Except for the power to amend the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, the Executive Committee shall have all the powers and authority of the Board in the intervals between meetings of the Board, subject to the direction and control of the Board. Any actions or business transacted by the Executive Committee will be reported back to the full Board. At any time, the Executive Committee could offer guidance on a particular issue or decide to defer to the full Board.
  • Finance and Audit Committee – Consists of the Treasurer (who serves as the Committee Chair), the President, three Board members selected by a majority vote of the Board, and general members selected at large. The Committee prepares an annual budget and recommends this budget to the Board at least 35 days prior to the Annual Conference & Trade Show. The final budget is subject to the approval of the full Board.
  • Home Care Political Action Committee – Promotes and strives for improvement of government by encouraging and stimulating home care agencies and others to take a more active and effective part in governmental affairs and the political process. For more information, click here.
  • Leadership Development Committee – Consists of members selected by a majority vote of the Board. The Committee identifies potential candidates and spheres of influence; chooses a slate of qualified candidates for all Board positions to be filled at the Annual Conference & Trade Show; assists with the orientation of new Board members; and helps evaluate the Board’s performance.
