Ad Hoc ACA CommitteesAd hoc committees (sometimes also known in the ACA as a "task force"), are established for a limited time (typically a year) to address a specific issue. Unlike standing committees, ad hoc committees are less formal and composed of members who are interested in a specific topic and bring personal knowledge or background to the group. The groups are appointed each year, or when needed, by the President. Ad hoc committees report to council and, as with standing committees, they are not to take actions involving the Association funds or prestige, nor use the Association name to solicit funds, nor commit the membership or the officers of the Association to a course of action without the approval of the Council. Ad hoc committees offer a unique opportunity to membership to tackle some of the most pressing issues of the association. If you are interesting in joining or serving on a committee email Kristin Stevens.

In preparing site recommendations the Committee should obtain relevant materials from the ACA Buffalo office, including criteria for choosing meeting sites and reports on previous meeting sites. The Vice President will be kept informed of potential meeting sites before the Site Selection Committee visits the site. The Vice President should also choose, in consultation with the Meeting Committee, the Transactions Symposium topic and the Symposium Chair. The Committee will receive from Council the appropriate geographical area and target dates. The Committee will look at the various areas and choose a site that appears to have validity. Considerations for a site include: • geographical area • adequate conference facilities for posters, exhibits and sessions • room rental and food and beverage prices • hotel sleeping accommodations and accessibility to session rooms The Committee shall submit a detailed report to the ACA Council on each site visit. Upon approval from Council, the Committee shall review and sign conference facilities and/or hotel contracts. Contracts should be signed before the end of the current year to secure the best possible pricing. Diversity Task ForceACA Diversity Task Force Composition 2021: Dr. Jennifer A. Aitken (Chair)
