Working Committees: Addressing the Organization of Local
Affiliates
AECA is looking closely at the current structure of the
organization, specifically the way in which our local affiliates
are structured. Many (not all) of our local affiliates are
struggling and/or inactive. The AECA Executive Board plans to
work on making changes to better the organization so we are
meeting the needs of our members. We want to hear from our
members! We want you to have a voice, so please make plans to
join a committee and share with us your ideas to strengthen our
organization. The two working committees are listed below along
with the contact information for the chair. Please contact the
committee chair to join these working committees and help us
make progress to better meet the needs of our association.
Bylaws/Constitution - This committee will determine how
changes would be made and how our state is currently divided
into local affiliates. They will also be looking at the roles of
our current Members-at-Large
