Publication Committee Mission

The primary function of the Publication Committee it to identify topics of information caregivers are in need of and to facilitate the means to deliver that information via various publication opportunities. Although there certainly are opportunities for those who would like to write articles for publication, the committee is not specifically organized to write the articles. The committee is structured to guide and oversee the publication process. Members meet and discuss topic areas, select writers, and make decisions about the general layout. Coordination is done with the technical individuals who actually complete the graphics and typesetting. The committee seeks input from caregivers to ensure topic areas are relevant and meet needs. The committee meets on a flexible schedule depending upon the current project(s).

Meetings are scheduled every 4-6 weeks. Meetings last approximately one hour. Individual tasks to follow-up or complete are required outside of the meetings. Expectations of committee members: meeting attendance; individual task follow-up; passion for the power of the written word in assisting caregivers to deal as successfully as possible with their (new) role.
