NCA’s committees have been restructured to better handle the needs and opportunities facing the association.
Among the new committees are the Buyer Member Benefits Committee, which will consider and make decisions about anything that is considered a benefit for Buyer members, such as discounts, education, and the Plot Service. Similarly, the new Vendor Benefits Committee will oversee NCA benefits for vendors, such the Buyer’s Group, the NCA Digital Catalog, and the Zoom Fashion Show. The Revenue Committee is also new; this committee will seek new sources of revenue for the association.
Several of the new committees are combinations of previous committees. For example, the new Publications and Publicity committee combines the Publications Committee, the Social Media Committee and the Web Site Committee. And the Nominations & Awards Committee and the Bereavement, Disaster & Grievance Committee replace separate committees for each those functions.
Some committees are unchanged, such as Policy & Procedures and Membership. One existing committee – History – has an expanded list of duties. Because the NCA will be celebrating its centennial in 2023, the History Committee is tasked with coming up with ideas for that milestone event.
