Board Structure and Process
The Board manages the RA in the interests of its members, in a way that reflects the mission, vision and values of the organization and is respectful of its Constitution and By-Laws.
The Board determines the vision and strategic direction for the RA, the organization’s governance structure and policies, and the RA Management Framework, all designed to support and strengthen its own work and the management accountability structure and processes of the organization. The policies define the Chief Executive Officer’s role, authority and accountability, the parameters within which the CEO operates and the roles and responsibilities of the Board of Directors.
The Board currently has four ad hoc committees: a Governance Committee, a Budget Committee, an Audit Committee, and a Strategic Planning Committee, plus a Nomination and Election Committee.
Position Available
There is currently a vacancy on the RA Board of Directors under the Regular Membership Category.
