As a delegate, I speak and vote on behalf of the entire chapter membership, elect the Board of Directors, vote on the adoption or rejection of submitted resolutions, adopted the three-year budget, attend chapter meetings and participate as a part of the Chapter Council, and advocate for positive changes to help excluded employees in the workplace.

I know our jobs as supervisors and managers can be tough sometimes, and that’s why I continue to choose to be involved with ACSS. I believe we need to keep working hard to support and build a strong association that looks out for our members and has our backs. Thank you for your consideration and stay safe!
