List of Regions and their contact persons

The membership of ELEA is divided into the 9 Regions of the ELCA.  Each Region elects at least a chair, a secretary, a treasurer, and a representative to serve on the National ELEA Board.  This Region Board is charged with the responsibility for events and resources that the Region decides would best serve the needs of that Region’s members, other than one conference held biennially in each Region which is coordinated by the ELEA National Office.  The National Board serves as the governing body of the organization and meets at least once annually with the Executive Director and other advisory members.
