Meet the Board
The DPA Board is composed of elected officers and appointed members, each serving a two-year term. The board convenes bi-monthly to oversee the organization’s operations, while ad hoc committees provide updates as needed. Reports from the board and committees are shared with members during general meetings, typically held four times a year.
