Board of Commissioners

AHA operates under the direction of a 5-member Board of Commissioners (BOC) which consists of individuals selected by the tribes and confirmed by APIA, the regional non-profit. The size of the board and the term limits are established by state statute. Each Commissioner serves a three (3) year term and Commissioner seats rotate between the 12-member regional tribes. The BOC in turn appoints an Executive Director, who is responsible for the day-to-day operations of the organization.
