Heads of Houses

The Board of Directors/Heads of Houses meet twice per year, plus engage in networking throughout the year.

At our in-person/hybrid meetings, they enjoy sharing updates with one another, learning from one another’s successes and disappointments, offer advice to one another and generally enjoy fellowship in the meeting as well as over meals. Sometimes we invite a speaker on a topic of general interest. Other times, it is just the Heads of Houses themselves.
