Special Interest Groups

Special Interest Groups are committees of AHEAD members dedicated to specific problems or needs.

During FY 2010 the AHEAD Board of Directors, led by Michael Shuttic as President, evaluated new structures to broaden the impact of work done by and for the association, extend and deepen sustainable engagement both within and outside the association and overall to expand capacity of the organization.  Following review of options, at the Spring 2010 full board meeting, five Standing Committees were approved:
