ECHO BOARD OF DIRECTORS

ECHO’s mission is to develop and communicate educational and emergency information about issues affecting the health and safety of limited-English proficient populations.  Our collaborative work is supported by government, non-profit, community-based and private organizations.  Without the support of these individuals, organizations, staff, cultural agents, and volunteers, ECHO could not succeed (we thank you all!).
Since 2004, ECHO was guided by a mostly government lead Steering Committee.  ECHO is now guided by its its Board of Directors, a diverse group of individuals willing to share their professional skills and resources to support ECHO’s mission by providing responsible care, management and control of ECHO’s general operations.

Questions about the Board of Directors, committees and ECHO operation should be directed to the executive director.
