Board of Directors
The Board of Directors acts as the voting structure for all material decisions of uNAVSA. Combined with the Executive Board and the Council of Regional Representatives, both groups form the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors operate through four different committees reflecting upon different attributes of the organization. Each chaired person on the Executive Board, also chairs a committee with the exception of the Treasurer.
Strategic Planning Committee:
Chaired by the President, the Strategic Planning Committee is charged with the internal development and growth of the organization as a whole. This committee is responsible for developing and transitioning direction and vision. The group will also identify unmet needs in the Vietnamese community and develop initiatives to respond on UNAVSA’s behalf. Strategic Planning will also self-evaluate the organization and develop proposals to evolve and improve.
