Meet Your Board of Trustees

ASPHO's constitution stipulates four offices: president, vice president, secretary/treasurer, and immediate past president. Today, the Board includes six trustees-at-large in addition to the officers of the Society. For president, vice president, and immediate past president, the term of office is 2 years each; the secretary/treasurer, and trustees-at-large serve a 3 year term.
