1. Purpose:
1.1 The purpose of the CHES Partnership and Advocacy Committee is to develop national policies and criteria for engaging partners to enhance our members’ ability to perform their job.

2. Meetings:
2.1 Meetings of this committee will be held by teleconference quarterly or at the discretion of the chair. A face-to-face meeting will be held at the annual National Conference if deemed appropriate. The team will select a member of the team to record minutes of each meeting. Minutes shall clearly identify action items with person responsible for follow-up, any decisions made, any established timelines, & recommendations to the National CHES Board of Directors. All minutes will be copied to National office.

3. Membership:

No chair shall serve more than two (2) consecutive terms. The term of the Vice Chair of the Partnership & Advocacy Committee shall be two (2) years.
