Thank You for Serving ASHI in 2006
Committees: The purpose of a committee is to carry out the specific charge identified for it in the ASHI bylaws. Unless otherwise specified, a committee is expected to make recommendations in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board, and, when requested by the Board, assist in their implementation.
In other words, this is where the work of the society gets done. Each committee has a chair appointed by the president and approved by the board. The committee chairs then select committee members from those who have answered the call for volunteers.
The bylaws define the basic duties for most of the standing committees. To review the bylaws covering committees, visit the membership extranet on www.ASHI.org. Go to Publications, then Bylaws and Policy and Procedures. Bylaw Article 8 covers committees.
Additional tasks can be assigned to the committees by the board as part
of the annual work plan. The work plan also provides the tactics for
carrying out out the duties and completing the tasks. Committee chairs
report and bring motions to the board at its quarterly meetings. ASHI
is truly a member-driven organization. Those who do committee work are
in the forefront of shaping the present and the future of the society,
and they deserve to be recognized for their service.

Note: The board of directors also may create task forces, as the name suggests, to address specific tasks that have a definite beginning and end. Some task forces are formed across committee lines, others enlist members who are not serving on a committee. Unlike committees, when the task force completes its task, it is dissolved.
