Alliance Seeking Board Nominations
by Eric Gray, CPA, Vice Chair, Hemophilia Alliance Board

The Hemophilia Alliance Board Nominating Committee is seeking applicants or suggested nominations to fill two vacancies on the board of directors, with the term beginning January 2023. For consideration by the nominating committee, applicants are to submit a letter of interest and resume or CV to egray@ihtc.org by Sunday, November 27, 2022. We seek to broadly represent our membership and are encouraging applicants from all regions and disciplines to apply.

Applicants or suggested nominees must be employed by a Hemophilia Treatment Center in good standing with the Hemophilia Alliance, support the Hemophilia Alliance mission, vision and programs, and be willing to share their knowledge and expertise with the Hemophilia Alliance, participating in bi-monthly board meetings.

Terms are for a 3-year period, not to exceed 2 consecutive terms. In a typical non-pandemic year, the Board meets six times per year, three via conference call and three in-person. Two of the in-person meetings occur at the Hemophilia Alliance membership meetings and one board retreat takes place in January.
