What is the role of committee chairmen?

Committees are essential to the successful operation of RCAW, and committee chairmen carry a great deal of responsibility. Committee chairmen must understand the goals and objectives of their committees and communicate with the Executive Director to avoid duplicating the work of other committees.

Committee chairmen have the responsibility for calling committee meetings, recruiting additional committee members, preparing agendas, and ensuring minutes are taken and distributed. Committees must get approval from the Board of Directors before taking action on any specific item or incurring any expenses.
