WSEHA'S COMMITTEES

WSEHA's Board of Directors and various committees work in concert to make WSEHA the best that it can be for our members.  All of our committees are ran by volunteers, and we couldn't do it without them.  Many thanks to our volunteers that donate their time, energy, and hard work!

Publications

The main responsibility of this committee is the WSEHA Newsletter.  The Chair is the editor of the WSEHA Newsletter for which our goal is to publish semi-annually, or quarterly during periods of high educational opportunities.  The Publications Committee works with several members of the Board for news articles and announcements for the newsletter.  When WSEHA has an Annual Educational Conference (AEC), the Publications Committee works with the AEC Committee and the Executive Secretary to produce the AEC brochure and program for the conference.
