NRHH Leadership
NRHH is a branch of NACURH, Inc. All member institutions of NACURH are eligible to host an NRHH Chapter on their campus. NRHH offers many services in conjunction with NACURH and its affiliates. The honorary leadership is made up of an NACURH NRHH Board of Directors (NNBD) with representation from each regional affiliate. As NACURH is NRHH's parent organization, NRHH is intertwined with the NACURH corporate structure. As such, some NRHH matters are presented before the combined leadership of NACURH or the NACURH Board of Directors (NBD). The NACURH Associate for NRHH (NAN), a member of the NACURH Executive Committee, serves as the Executive Director for NRHH and represents NRHH in all NACURH matters. They are supported by the NACURH Associate for Engagement (NAE) and the NACURH NRHH Advisor. The NAN oversees the NNBD, the implementation of a NACURH-wide OTM program, among other things. Each of NACURH's eight regional affiliates has a leadership structure that includes an Associate Director for NRHH (ADNRHH) and an NRHH Coordinating Officer (CO), in our case, the Coordinating Officer for Service & Recognition (COSR). Each ADNRHH, along with a representative from the NACURH Corporate Office (AD for Recognition & Engagement), is a voting member of the NNBD and leads NRHH both within their respective region and as part of the NNBD. Additionally, a representative from the Annual Conference (NBD Liaison) sits on the NNBD to provide perspective.Â
