News from the Board
The issue of transparency has long been an issue by the AUPHA Board and President/CEO. The Board takes this seriously and is working to enhance Board transparency. To that end, the Board will begin opening their face-to-face meetings (currently three per year) on a first come, first served basis, to allow members to participate in the discussion. This will begin with the March 2017 meeting of the Board, scheduled to be held in conjunction with ACHE’s Congress in Chicago on March 28th. Additional information on how the Board plans to introduce an “open meeting” format will be sent out early next year. This will work to better introduce the Board deliberations to members, to invite input, and, more importantly, to help train future Board members.
