GSWPA Council Delegates
As part of our policy-influencing process, members 14 years and older may serve as council delegates and participate in the council democratic process.
Delegates partner with the Board of Directors in developing and implementing strategic policies for the council by providing guidance/input to the Board of Directors on major issues and policies affecting the future of the council and communicating those issues and policies to Service Area members. A complete position description outlines these responsibilities.
Council delegates have dual accountability to the council membership and to their Service Area constituency.
Delegates shall serve a term of one (1) year or until their successors are elected. Delegates may serve no more than three consecutive terms. Terms of office shall begin at the time delegates are elected.
Council delegates are elected from within their service areas, and once elected will learn more about their role and responsibility in their Delegate Self-Study Guide and the Blue Book of Basic Documents.
