Dear AFHTO members:
Are you interested in serving on the AFHTO board of directors? The Governance Committee of AFHTO’s board invites anyone who works within an AFHTO member organization to apply. Please share this call for nominations with all who work in your team.
Four (4) positions are to be elected for a 3-year term and two (2) are to be elected for a 1-year term on the 14-member AFHTO board. The AFHTO by-laws call for balanced representation on the board to include the various forms of governance, the regions of the province, and the mix of the professions working within FHTs, NPLCs and other interprofessional models of primary care.
Given the composition of the continuing board members, priority for the six directors to be elected will be given to candidates who are:
- Experienced in finance, including accreditation as a financial professional (e.g. CA, CPA, CMA)
- Executive Directors and Interprofessional Health Care Providers (IHPs)
- From AFHTO members located in the North, Eastern Ontario and Toronto area
To apply:

- Nominees will be informed of their status by September 28, 2018.
- Nominees who are not recommended for the slate will have until October 5, 2018 to determine whether they wish to proceed with having their name go forward on the election ballot.
