Policies or Guidance (what you will do; how will you do it) Meetings: How often?

Representation (how many & who will be on the committee)	Continue with members who are interested; also liaison with regions (not necessarily on the same time). Representatives or reports from Working Groups (invite them in for a limited time). Continue to invite marketing/communications/business folks.
Roles of committee (what is needed)	Committee is an advisory body for the Communications Plan. Providing content Communications Director. Assistance on the newsletter and social media.
