The Steering Committee has established 11 sub-committees who will plan various aspects of the conference. Sub-committees include representation from each professional association and the host state.
Specific responsibilities of each sub-committee were determined by each sub-committee in 2006. Most if not all of the work is completed via conference calls and electronically. Each sub-committee has determined the frequency of their meetings. The sub-committees will function through the completion and evaluation of the Galaxy III Conference.
Individuals interested in serving on one of these sub-committees should contact a representative from their professional association as listed above for further information on the selection process.
Below is a list of the sub-committees and the steering committee representative who is leading the sub-committee.
