Board Committees

The current board committees are outlined below. Meeting notes for board committees are included in the board agenda packet each month. If you have any questions about these committees, please reach out to the board of directors via email at: coopboard@foodcoop.coop.

In addition to these committees, the board established an ad hoc committee on diversity, equity, and inclusion in 2020, educating ourselves to help us as we write policy for the Co-op. We are currently exploring the options for a committee on equity, belonging, inclusivity, and accessibility (EBIA), working with cooperative consultants. We’ll update this page when we have more information.
