Executive Committee

Linda Schoelkopf
Chair - JA Staff Alumni Network, a Pioneer Legacy; Dallas, TX

JASAN (the JA Staff Alumni Network) is led by 14 former JA professionals serving on the Executive Committee.  All members serve a one-year term, elected by the JASAN membership each year.  Our Bylaws define the makeup of the Executive Committee which includes the chairs of committees and an option to include “at-large” members.

The Executive Committee generally meets monthly to conduct the business of the organization, focusing on the annual program of work.
