CARH BROADCAST E-MAIL – Annual Meeting Update
April 17, 2024
1) Board of Directors Questionnaire for Candidates Due May 31st – Five Open Positions
Serving on the CARH Board of Directors is an excellent opportunity to actively support your organization and to help develop policies and initiatives that will positively impact the affordable rural housing industry. CARH is seeking members to fill five board openings that will become available in June. Board terms are two years and board members may serve two consecutive terms.
If you are interested in serving on the board, please submit a completed Questionnaire for Candidates to the national CARH office by the close of business on Friday, May 31, 2024. The questionnaire represents an expression of interest in a board position and serves as a substitute for a letter of interest. Please email the completed questionnaire to carh@carh.org by the due date.
The CARH Nominating Committee will carefully review each questionnaire and recommend new directors. CARH members will vote on the recommended candidates at the General Membership Meeting, during CARH’s Annual Meeting scheduled for June 24-26, 2024. Board members will begin their terms at the June Board of Directors meeting, which also takes place during the Annual Meeting.
