Action Team Leaders
Action Teams assist the Board of Directors and staff in meeting goals and tasks to align with the Mission, Vision, and Values of AEEA. Board of Directors and the Executive Director lead most of the Action Teams, which change from year to year depending on the annual goals. We welcome and encourage AEEA members to become involved with an Action Team. If you are interesting in learning more about the currently active Action Teams, please reach out to us.
