Nominations Committee Update Volume 35 Issue 3

The strength of SOCCA lies in its members’ incredible talent and energy. Volunteering is one of the best ways to contribute to the Society. Each year, the SOCCA Nominations Committee reviews nominees and prepares an election ballot for available Officer and Director positions. During this election cycle, we will elect four members for the Board of Directors (for a 3-year term). Further details about SOCCA’s governance structure are outlined in our Society Bylaws.

We are excited to share with you that additional opportunities to serve the organization, such as committee involvement, will be communicated soon. In 2024, we will seek volunteers for our Communication, Education, Membership, and Research committees and the newly established Clinical Practice Committee.

Those interested in elected positions must submit a letter of interest, photograph, and curriculum vitae. The 2024 Call for Volunteers will open on November 1, 2024, and close on December 31, 2024. The criteria for evaluating volunteer leaders can be found here: VOLUNTEER LEADERSHIP SELECTION CRITERIA.

If you have any questions about the opportunities available within SOCCA, please contact SOCCA Society Director Jennifer Rzepka, CAE. She will ensure you are connected with the right SOCCA resource.

We look forward to your enthusiastic participation and thank you for your dedication to our community!
