The VRA Board so appreciates these members commitment to contribute in this meaningful way to both the association’s future and the field at large.  Their first tasks will include selecting co-chairs, reconsidering the committee's name and charge, and developing an initial list of action items for 2020.

The board is truly excited to launch this committee and support an equitable, diverse, and inclusive association.

All best,
