The LPNC conducts much of its work via committees. The LPNC maintains a Slack members workspace, with specific Slack channels for each committee. Any LPNC member is welcome to observe and comment on any committee's proceedings. In order to observe or get involved, however, an LPNC member must join the LPNC Slack workspace. Any member is welcome to join the LPNC Slack workspace for any reason. To join please contact the LPNC Secretary.
If you are interested in serving on a committee, contact the LPNC Chair or the committee chair.
