In this second article from the Council of Representatives, I want to introduce you to the CoR group leaders and to explain their role in the organization.

ASHI chapters and unaffiliated members are represented on the council, which is divided into 10 geographic regions.

Each region has a group leader.

Once a quarter, the group leaders participate in a conference call chaired by the CoR speaker. They discuss the upcoming ASHI Board meeting for the purpose of offering direction to the board members. Ideally, such direction is from the ASHI membership, as passed through their respective council reps, when practical.

The group leaders and I are here for each of you. Please feel free to contact any of us to assist you in your needs.
In reviewing chapters’ council positions, I found a few vacant spots. If your chapter happens to have an opening or two, I encourage you to strongly consider asking your chapter president for an appointment. I realize that everyone has many reasons for joining organizations and then has reasons for limited personal involvement. However, no organization can survive without help. The position of council rep is important to ASHI. First of all, council reps are the conduit between the general membership and the board and committees. They also perform an important duty, forming the nomination committees for both the slated officers and directors. As a whole, they elect the ASHI Board of Directors from within. These directors and officers are the governing body of our organization. For us to grow, we need your assistance.
