We appreciate and value the time and dedication of our Executive Committee, Board of Directors and Committee Members.
Though TQHA operates primarily upon the decisions of its members through the board of directors and our specialty committees. The six-person executive committee is responsible for implementing these important decisions and governing TQHA between the annual meetings of the membership and the board. Please feel free to contact any of our directors or committee members with any questions, concerns or suggestions.
Meet our team!
