We invite you to vote in this fall’s election for the open seats on our National Association of Catholic Chaplains Board of Directors. The membership will fill two elected seats on the NACC Board.
The NACC Nominations Panel, the Governance Committee, and the Board of Directors worked conscientiously to discern leadership needs, seek board applicants from our membership, and choose candidates who bring a wealth of experience and expertise to the Board. We are grateful to those who offered to be candidates.
The Board of Directors is pleased to present to you two candidates for the two open seats.
We are communicating with members about this election via email. NACC members without email addresses will be sent a letter to alert them of the voting eligibility, timeline and process.
