SPECIAL EXECUTIVE BOARD ELECTION NOMINATIONS

Nominations closed at 5pm on March 13.

The AFH Council is conducting a Special Election to fulfill a recently vacant At Large (Statewide) position on its Executive Board for the remainder of 2024. We are seeking nominations for this position from AFH Council members in good standing. Submitted nominees will be listed as candidates on the Special Election ballot, which will be open from March 18, 2024 to April 12, 2024.

Please note that the successful candidate from this Special Election will only hold the At Large position until December 31, 2024, but will have an opportunity to run again in the regular 2024 Executive Board Election.

The AFH Council Executive Board

Composed of 11 members across Washington’s seven regions, the board’s main purpose is to ensure that the Council:

  1. Achieves appropriate results for the membership at an appropriate cost (as specified in Board Ends Policies), and
  2. Avoids unacceptable actions and situations.

The Board commits itself and its members to ethical, professional, and lawful conduct, including proper use of authority and appropriate decorum when acting as Board members. Click here for more information on board member responsibilities and qualifications.
