Leadership, Development and Nominating Committee

The Leadership, Development and Nominating Committee (LDNC) committee is made up of three elected members of the church. The mission and composition of the committee is stated in the AUUC bylaws. Core committee responsibilities include:

  • Identifying and nominating AUUC members to fill vacant AUUC volunteer elected positions at AUUC annual meetings;

  • Identifying leadership training opportunities and encouraging AUUC members and leaders to participate in those training opportunities;

  • Developing training materials that explain how AUUC works (e.g. AUUC 101).
