Leadership of Dignity/Palm Springs

Dignity/Palm Springs is governed by a five-member Council, that is headed by the chairperson of the Council.  Members of the Council are elected to two-year, staggered terms of office, as follows: The chairperson of the Council, the Liturgy chairperson, and the Communications chairperson are each elected at the end of odd-numbered years to serve a two-year term of office beginning on the following January 1; and the Finance chairperson and the Membership chairperson are each elected at the end of even-numbered years to serve a two-year term of office beginning on the following January 1. Since there are two liturgies each Sunday now, the Liturgy chairperson has been allowed to run for office with a designated co-chairperson, who is allowed to act for the chairperson in all respects when the chairperson is absent. The current members of the Council are listed below.
