Communications Committee

Purpose

The purpose of the Communications Committee is to identify, develop, and support information in the form of electronic media for the MASFAA membership community. The committee collaborates with other MASFAA groups to help promote association events by creating advertisement material across our different modalities. We strive to acknowledge the contributions of MASFAA volunteers, while promoting the MASFAA community at large.

Composition

The committee consists of co-chairs appointed by the President. The committee works within a liaison structure, where each of the other MASFAA Committees will designate one member as the Communications Committee Liaison. This representative will be responsible for relaying information to the co chairs for dissemination or archiving. The Committee may also have other volunteer members from the Association.
