Committee Members
We are also looking for current members who are interested in contributing to the work of the NYSBHA through our committees. There are currently openings on the Finance, Technical Assistance, and Membership and Resource committees and we are developing a brand new Programming and Events Committee to help shape an annual conference as well as other educational offerings. This is a great opportunity for you to “give back” and use your experience to help shape policies and programs! Interested? Email nysbha@gmail.com and put "Committee Membership" in the subject line and let us know which committee you would like to join.
