ABOUT COMMITTEES

NEACAC has fourteen standing committees, and the Executive Board and Governing Board appoint additional ad-hoc committees to address particular needs.  (In the past, for example, ad-hocs have discussed the timing and setting of the Annual Meeting, developing our Adopt-A-District program, creating our Strategic Plans/Strategic Framework, and planning our 50th Anniversary Celebration.) 

Our current committees are:

Admissions Practices IDEA (Inclusion, Diversity, Education and
Annual Meeting & Conference Access)
