Besides providing governanace, what is the purpose of the Regional Councils?
The primary purpose of the Regional Councils is to provide support and training for our member associations, to provide resources and encouragement for program and leadership development, and to serve as a conduit for information to and from the national office, board, and committees and the member associations. The Regional Council provides information to the member associations that it receives from the national office and board, from other Regional Councils, and from the other member associations. The Regional Council also provides the national office and board with information and input from the member associations.
