Component Trustees & General Assembly
Our General Assembly is held each year during Annual Session. During the General Assembly meeting, NCDHA members are given the opportunity to engage in the business aspect of our association. Engaging in the General Assembly enables North Carolina hygienists to express their voice for the direction our association takes in business decisions, community engagements, continuing education, fundraising opportunities, and advocacy for our profession.
Contact any of our leaders if you are interested in representing your Component.
