UPCOMING EVENTS


How Our Board Typically Looks Like

ILEA is part of an international organization. Each chapter, like ours, has programs and events and is run by volunteers on the Board and Committees of each chapter. We have a President, President-Elect, and generally 3 committees – Membership, Programs and Communications. Each committee is chaired by a Vice President (VP). On the Board, the number of combined Officers and Directors-At-Large is thirteen.
