Service on a board or commission is a great way to contribute to the state and your community. There are a great number of boards and commissions to which the Governor makes appointments that deal with virtually all Department and public policy areas. Some appointments made by the Governor require the Advice and Consent of the State Senate, while others are made by the Direct Appointment of the Governor, requiring no action by the Senate.
Serving on a board or commission requires more than an individual's presence, it requires an unyielding contribution of expertise and time. It is important to realize that time commitment will vary depending on the ways in which a specific board or commission is operated.
We welcome your participation in this process, and look forward to hearing from you soon.
