Vaya Human Rights Committee membership requires a moderate level commitment of time and energy. Participation involves attending quarterly meetings and occasional subcommittee meetings. No special knowledge or training is required to serve on the committee, only a desire to improve the system. Additional reading on topics related to mental health, substance use disorders, intellectual/developmental disabilities, and traumatic brain injuries is required. Required reading material will be provided. Vaya Human Rights Committee meetings are included on the Calendar of Events on our website.
