Thinking about becoming more involved in the District? Then apply to join the Executive Committee. If you have not been involved in the past, there are two ways to get involved: either as an area director that is a liaison with sisterhoods or as an at-large member.
This is a once-in-three-year opportunity. Applications to be a part of the 2026-2029 Northeast District Executive Committee are below. Take a look at the descriptions for each position to see what role may best fit you.
The new board will be installed in spring 2026.
