National Laboratory Women of Color Community Forum activities are led by an Executive Committee consisting of the Chair (one year), Vice Chair (one year) and Ex officio (one year). The Vice Chair is elected by membership vote.
Chair responsibilities include organizing quarterly virtual events and potentially in-person meetings collocated with other events (e.g., the Grace Hopper Celebration, SC, etc.). The Chair will also collaborate with the Executive Committee on annual summary reporting/activity highlights to the NLDC.
On behalf of the National Laboratory Directors’ Council, Kim Budil (Director, Livermore National Laboratory) and Paul Kearns (Director, Argonne National Laboratory) are executive sponsors for the Forum.
