Commissioners Committee
Statement of Purpose

Solicit ideas from commissioners for discussion, evaluation and recommendation to the Executive Committee; keep commissioners informed of issues and actions and similar items with national or regional importance of a policy nature; and interact with other committees as necessary.

The Commissioners' Committee is an all state and all commissioner/board member forum. It is both an educational and informational session that occurs at the annual conference in July and the mid-winter meeting in January of each year. This allows members an opportunity to understand what is happening in other states from the perspective of someone with a similar charge. This session helps to identify the role and responsibilities of a commission/board member and provides a learning environment through sharing experiences and providing networking opportunities. It is an excellent venue in which to discuss tough issues that most states have in common.
