The Committee
Who serves the Society, and what each role involves.
The Committee
The Board of Directors runs the Society day to day, and the Founding Board safeguards its mission and identity. Here is who serves, and what each role involves.
How the Society runs
The Board of Directors has five offices. Each is elected for one year at the regular Assembly of members, usually held during the annual conference, and ratified by the Founding Board. Until the first regular Assembly, the offices are held by the initial Board named in the Bylaws.
The Founding Board is the permanent body of the Society's founders. It safeguards the Society's mission, vision and theological and academic identity; day-to-day operations belong to the Board of Directors.
