Call for Nominations

NHNPA is seeking nominations for TWO important positions on our Board of Directors - Vice President and Member-At-Large.  All current members are encouraged to nominate a colleague or to self-nominate.  The nomination application will take less than 5 minutes - we will ask three quick questions about qualifications and prior involvement in NHNPA.  Below you will find brief descriptions about each board position, as they are described in the organization’s by-laws. We have also shared a general overview of the expectations of all our Board members. Nominations will be accepted through April 1, 2020.  If you have any questions about either position please feel free to contact the current Vice President Jillian Belmont ([email protected]).

Convene the first meeting of the nominating committee. 

There shall be a Member-at-Large who will be nominated by the Nominating Committee to serve in any capacity, as necessary, on the Executive Committee. This position will be considered a position of mentoring for the individual with the purpose to succeed in one of the board positions in the future.  The Member-at-Large represents the NP community as a whole, and as such will obtain insight from the various Regional Coordinators around the state and bring their voices to the board. This position will function as the Chair of the Regional Coordinators.
