Call for nominations to the AFHTO Board of Directors - deadline to apply July 13

Are you interested in serving on the AFHTO board of directors? The Governance Committee of AFHTO’s board invites anyone who works within an AFHTO member organization to apply. Please share this call for nominations with all who work in your team.

Six positions on the board are up for election:

  • Five are to be elected for a 3-year term
  • One to be elected to fulfil the remainder of a 2-year term on the 14-member AFHTO board.

The AFHTO by-laws call for balanced representation on the board to include the various forms of governance, the regions of the province, and the mix of the professions working within FHTs, NPLCs and other interprofessional models. Given the composition of eight continuing board members, priority for the six directors to be elected will be given to candidates who are:

  • Executive Directors or Interprofessional Health Providers
  • From community-led FHTs and NPLCs

To apply:

The Governance Committee of the AFHTO board will review all applications to assist the AFHTO board to determine the slate of candidates to recommend to the AFHTO membership for election at the AFHTO annual general meeting.

  • Nominees will be informed of their status by October 9.
  • Nominees who are not recommended for the slate will have until October 12 to determine whether they wish to proceed with having their name go forward on the election ballot.
  • The election will take place at the Annual General Meeting in conjunction with the AFHTO annual conference.  This year it will be held:
