Leadership

EDPMA is governed under its bylaws by an elected Board of Directors.  When the Board is not in session, the Executive Committee, an elected subset of the Board, is empowered to make executive decisions for EDPMA to keep the organization moving forward.  The vast majority of EDPMAs work is accomplished through Committees associated with legislative and regulatory priorities and Committees focused on organizational goals and functions.  Be sure to visit the Committee section of EDPMAs website to see what each Committee is working on right now and how to get involved.
