HDAA Volunteer Wall of Honor
Volunteers are the backbone of HDAA. Our website content comes almost exclusively from members -- you'll find their names throughout our recording and presentation archives, too many to list on a single page. Here's a short list of especially engaged volunteers who keep us in operation and focused on the HDAA mission.
Community Advisory Council
The Community Advisory Council, created out of a 2022 focus-group initiative, is a forum for our most engaged and committed members to influence the direction of our association. Its purpose:
- Innovate new and evolve existing HDAA program offerings, paying respect to our culture and history.
- Making sure HDAA programs meet the needs of its members.
- Making sure Initiatives are sustainable
