C-Change

“New members are selected by c-change in a process coordinated by the membership committee. The membership committee reviews periodically the list of c-change members to ensure a balanced representation among members from the private, public, and nonprofit sectors and from the research, control, public health, and advocacy communities. Based on this assessment, the membership committee reviews the nominations of potential new members and submits candidates to the board of directors for approval. Candidates for member positions must: have a strategic position in the cancer field and/or the capacity to affect the overall c-change mission. Be willing and able to provide direct or in-kind resources to support c-change effort. Be prepared to demonstrate a personal commitment (at least by participating in the annual meetings) to the achievement of c-change's goals. Be willing and able to commit or engage his or her organization, institution, or constituency in c-change's activities. Spend the quality time necessary to participate in or contribute to the work of c-change. Come from a category or discipline that will help ensure the desired balance and representation in the makeup of c-change. Be willing to be evaluated regarding his or her participation in c-change; to be held accountable for meeting standards commensurate with occupying a highly valued position of a c-change member.”
