The role of each policy committee is to assess public policy needs within their domain and to recommend targets for programming that will measurably affect the development of public policy. The committee co-chairs and members are expected to assume leadership roles in the development, implementation, evaluation, and follow-through of Institute programming in their areas.
The Institute's eight policy committees are comprised of stakeholders from the 10-county region and beyond who bring a wide range of knowledge and expertise to the table.
