• build and maintain morale among the staff

Committee Membership: The committee aims to have at least one representative from each business unit. The committee size will be approximately 15-25 and will include up to two advisors from the financial leadership team (Sherice McCarthy-Hill, Director of Payroll and Michael Barrett, Director of Financial Reporting).

Individuals will volunteer to serve a two-year term. They may serve continue to serve beyond two year if they so choose and their supervisor is agreeable. A new term begins January 1.

Regular committee meetings are scheduled monthly. The Chair, Co-Chair, and Advisors meet prior to the regular meetings for meeting planning purposes.
