About ABAA

ABAA Committees

Standing committees are formed by the Board of Directors to carry out the association's mission, design and develop policies and procedures and make recommendations to the board. The ABAA management team is available to assist committees in an administrative capacity as well as to provide leg work deemed necessary to achieve committee goals. Although physical attendance is encouraged, all meetings have conference call ability and members have the option of participating via telephone.

The following committees have been established as standing committees. The work of these committees is to develop and draft policy, presented in the form of recommendations to the Board of Directors, Committee recommendations do not go into effect as organizational policy until such time that the policies are formally adopted by the resolution of the board itself.

1. Technical Committee
2. Education & Outreach Committee
3. Housewrap committees.

Each committee has established by the board and is mandated to provide guidance to the Directors on specific areas of association operation.  A copy of the mandate for each committee is as follows.
