In accordance with the Region’s by-laws, the N&E solicited nominees from the MARC NAHRO membership for the four officers and five at-large seats on the Executive Board. The N&E held a virtual meeting on January 5 and unanimously voted on the below slate of nominees, whose names will appear on the election ballot, provided they remain in good standing with both national NAHRO and the Region and provided they have submitted all requested documentation to the N&E. Additional names may be placed on the election ballot upon the receipt of a valid petition by January 15. Petitions must carry the names of 25 active members in good standing from at least 25 different agencies and must be submitted electronically to Secretary Gina Gibson (gmgibson@hcaac.org) by January 15.
The voting will take place electronically and will run from January 25-March 31. Ballots will feature background information about each nominee. Requests for paper ballots must be submitted to Secretary Gibson by February 14. The N&E shall certify the election results at the annual meeting, which will be set by the Executive Board at a later date.
