The HBA of Northwest Michigan has professional staff to manage day to day functions, but our success is a direct result of our members’ support and involvement. As a volunteer driven organization, our committees help guide events and activities throughout the year.
Being on a committee means having a seat at the table where ideas turn into action. It’s a volunteer role where you collaborate with peers, share your perspective, and help shape the direction of the association and our industry.
Committees meet once a month, with the option to join in person or virtually. There’s no pressure, show up when you can, contribute where it makes sense for you, and if your schedule changes, you can step away at any time.
It’s a simple way to stay connected, get involved, and make an impact.
