About Our Committees
CHPC Committees
Our Committees
All CHPC members are required to participate in at least one committee and attend its meetings. Each committee is led by a CHPC member, and meetings are open to public participants, encouraging broad input and collaboration.
CHPC committees meet on the third Wednesday of the month, on the same day as the CHPC general meeting. Committees meet 8-10 times a year, with sessions held either in the morning or afternoon, depending on the committee’s schedule.
CHPC Organizational Structure
Committee Meetings
Committee meetings typically last 60 to 90 minutes and are chaired by a CHPC member. A designated time-keeper helps manage the discussion. The meeting agenda includes:
-
- Welcome and introductory comments from the chair (including meeting etiquette)
- Review of prior meeting notes
- Discussion of committee-specific topics
- New business
- Feedback and adjournment
What Work Does Each Committee Do?
Each committee is tasked with a specific responsibility outlined in its charge. The CHPC chairpersons, along with input from the Executive Committee, develop annual work plans for each committee. These work plans are aligned with Connecticut’s Integrated HIV Prevention and Care Plan, with monthly committee meeting agendas breaking the work down into actionable tasks.
