Local Section Regional Representatives 

 

AIHA Local Sections are divided into eight geographic regions.  Each region is overseen by an AIHA Board Member and a Regional Representative. 

Regional Representatives are assigned to work closely with the Local Sections Council (LSC) Chair, AIHA Board, and Local Section Officers to:

  • Facilitate more communication among local sections within a geographic area 
  • Provide coaching to local section officers on effective leadership
  • Track metrics of each local section with respect to size, number of meetings, officers, etc.
  • Provide local sections with subject matter speaker information
