NAMHSA seeks Vice President!

Due to the recent resignation of the Vice President, we are in need of a new Vice President. The position will take office after being voted in and the term will expire at NAN 2018, at which time they will then assume the office of President (for one year.) Current Showholders and Individual Members can nominate others or themselves for this position, as long as the nominated person has been asked beforehand.

Candidates need to be aware that the job requires making the time and commitment to QUICKLY respond to Board work and issues. Board members assume ultimate responsibility for running NAMHSA and assuring a quality NAN. Daily Internet accessibility is required, as the NAMHSA Board is primarily an online forum and email entity. It requires the ability to read and respond to Board forum posts and emails every day.

Vice Presidential duties include:
Act as the first officer to the President to carry out NAMHSA business;
Perform the duties of the President in the absence of the President; and
Serve as the President's representative as directed.
The VP is the list owner of many of the organization's Yahoo Groups.
The VP has voting power.

In addition, the VP will be a member of the Finance Committee, which includes the following duties: “The VP should have on-line access to review the accounts. The VP shall review the account balance on a random basis (no less than every other week), and shall view an image of every paid check. After each review, the VP shall post to the BOD the result of the review. The VP shall receive the paid checks and compare the reconciliations to the bank accounts and notify the finance committee that they have been approved. The VP shall NOT be a signer on the account.”

The VP will also be responsible for reviewing and approving the monthly, quarterly, annual, and NAN financial reports.

The sitting VP may show at NAN.

After serving the remainder of the term, the Vice President will assume the office of NAMHSA President for a one year term beginning at the membership meeting held in conjunction with NAN. Please review NAMHSA Bylaws Article V, Section 4 for information regarding the office of NAMHSA President.
