What is
a Director ?
The NCHA is comprised of eight regions. Each region in the association has numerous Area Directors. These directors are an invaluable resource for members to use when getting involved with the NCHA. It is the goal of the NCHA to have an active Board of Directors who represent all members and desire to be active with NCHA governance.
Want to become an Area Director?
As required by the NCHA Constitution and By-laws, those persons desiring to serve on the NCHA Board of Directors must give consent for their name to be placed in nomination. Applicants must have been a member of the NCHA for at least three (3) years and over the age of twenty-one (21). All members meeting requirements for the Area Director position will then be listed on the election ballot sent to NCHA members in those Districts holding elections for the current year.
Director Application - due by January 15, 2024
Regional Director Application - due by March 23, 2024.
