Committees serve specific functions and can directly or indirectly affect how affiliates operate. Any Central Committee Member is eligible to be on any committee. Most committees are filled by the ExCom within 90 days of the LPCA Annual Convention. Most elected committees chose their own Chairs, and meeting schedule (usually virtual). In addition to serving their primary function, most committee chairs are required to submit a report on their committee to the ExCom a week before a particular meeting every quarter. If you or any member of your affiliate is interested in joining any of these committees, a résumé and any further statement of qualification should be sent to the ExCom before the announced meeting where elections take place for the committee of interest, for the purpose of seeking nomination. | Committees serve specific functions and can directly or indirectly affect how affiliates operate.
