Upcoming changes to CASE's volunteer leadership structure will create a forum for broader engagement across the globe and provide a more seamless, connected member experience.

CASE members play an important part in this process: for these changes to take effect, member institutions should vote affirmatively during the voting period.

Here's how CASE members can participate in this landmark process as we continue to pursue our mission of advancing education to transform lives and society:

• Confirm your institution's member coordinator. This is the person identified as a liaison with CASE who pays membership dues and updates staff rosters for access to CASE member benefits. This individual will be casting the vote on behalf of the CASE member institution.

While member records are frequently verified and updated, if there has been a recent staff change involving this individual, please contact CASE's member support team at +1-202-328-CASE [2273] or submit a ticket at support.case.org. Voting instructions will be sent directly to each institution's member coordinator, so it's vital that contact information is updated prior to the start of the voting period.

• Mark your calendars. Online voting will be open for the entire month of May 2019. Member institutions will vote on amended Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, and, in the U.S. and Canada, to align the corresponding district's legal status with the new structure.

• Be prepared. Read more about the vote or contact CASE staff with any questions.
