BACKGROUND:                                                                                                                                 

UTA’s Community Advisory Committee (CAC) has been in place since 2017 and has evolved over the past years. UTA’s Community Engagement Department supports the functioning of the CAC. It engages CAC members in discussions around key topics at UTA on a quarterly basis, in addition to optional subcommittee engagement. This discussion item will provide an update on the committee from 2023, priorities, and direction.

DISCUSSION:                                                                                                                                      

The UTA Community Advisory Committee (CAC) meets four times annually. Meetings generally consist of a welcome, board update, other UTA updates, and member roundtable.

 

In 2023, the committee engaged in discussions around planning, community engagement efforts, and more. In this discussion presentation, the Community Engagement Department will provide an update on the committee’s work in 2023 and priorities and direction for 2024. The Community Engagement Department, in partnership with the CAC members, is putting together a 2024 plan. The CAC membership will shift as we enter the new year, and recruitment is in early 2024. CAC will be present to share their experiences and interests related to the committee with the Board.
