Much of San Diego Housing Federation’s work is accomplished through committees and work groups which are open to all members. These groups of volunteers and their staff liaisons provide analysis, ideas, and recommendations that are forwarded to the Board of Directors. Frequently, they are tasked with implementing recommendations as well. All Members and staff of member organizations are encouraged to participate in San Diego Housing Federation Committees.
The Committee meets monthly on the second Wednesday of the month from 9 am to 10:30 am. The Board relies on this Committee to vet and recommend policy positions which are forwarded to the Board of Directors for final approval.
On December 21, 2016, the Board of Directors of the San Diego Housing Federation adopted a charter for the SDHF Policy Committee. The purpose of the charter is to establish a formal structure for the committee and a consistent voting membership. Please contact Laura Nunn with any questions.
The Marketing and Outreach Committee works closely with staff to develop and implement a marketing/communications plan that identifies the primary audiences for the organization, how best to reach them, and what they most care about. The committee monitors the presentation of the organization’s brand, and ensures that the products, services, events, and programs of the organization remain relevant to the audience.
The Committee meets monthly on the second Tuesday of the month from 11:30 am to 12:30 pm.
The committee also creates and implements recruitment and retention programs to increase and maintain membership with social and education programs and events and community engagement.
The Conference Committee participates in planning the Annual Conference including workshop selection and general session speaker(s). It meets several times between May and September to plan the annual October event.
To sign up for a committee or if you have questions regarding other volunteer opportunities, please contact Sarah Buchanan, Director of Events and Membership.
