Dear AFHTO members:
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.
Five (5) positions are to be elected for a 3-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 of primary care.
Given the composition of the continuing board members, priority for the directors to be elected will be given to candidates who are:
- Board members, especially community members in the position of Chair of the Board;
- Interprofessional Health Care Providers (IHPs), especially those working in mental health and addictions;
- Experienced in finance, including accreditation as a financial professional (e.g. CA, CPA, CMA); or
- From AFHTO members located in Eastern and Central Ontario.
To apply:

- Nominees will be informed of their status by September 5, 2019.
