Yes No Will you evaluate the quality and overall strength of the programs and services offered by the Dallas Chapter?
Yes No Will you assess changes suggested by the officers and committee chairs?
Yes No Will you identify strengths and opportunities for the future?

You and members of your organization are strongly encouraged to participate on the committee of your choosing. Some committee responsibilities are over extended periods of time, others require a larger commitment for a limited time. You may choose whatever works best for you.
