Decision-Making
TALC’s strength depends on our ability to join together around
common goals. For major policy decisions, such as taking
positions on proposed legislation or adopting new campaigns,
TALC actively seeks input from representatives of Member and
Affiliate Groups. Each Member and Affiliate Group designates a
representative to give TALC feedback through issue-specific
surveys, as well as at regional meetings and to the Board of
Directors.Board of
Directors
TALC is governed by a Board of Directors made up of
representatives of Member Groups. The Board guides TALC’s
overall direction and development and meets bimonthly to decide
on policy, program, and organizational issues. The Board’s 12
members are elected by the Member Group Representatives to
three-year terms, staggered so that one-third of the Board is
up for election every year. To maintain the coalition’s
cohesion, votes on major policy decisions require ¾ approval.
