Stakeholder Advisory Board
Our Stakeholder Advisory Board informs Center research and engagement initiatives. The Board is composed of 16 community-engaged professionals with invaluable expertise that relate to Center research themes and translational goals. As a Center, we cannot reach or collaborate with each and every educator or organization in our state, and our Board drastically increases the breadth and depth of our Center's engagement. SAB members demonstrate variety in geography, demographics, expertise, and organizational assets. As an integral part of the Center, our SAB helps guide how research is translated and transformed into public health knowledge. While the CEC is responsible for assembling the SAB, it serves the entire Center; advancing Environmental Health Science research via community-based needs. SAB members serve two year terms, attend in-person CHHE events, and meet twice per year to discuss local EHS research and priorities.
