Executive Committee
The Executive Committee provides the operational leadership of PAAPL—guiding its programs, partnerships, communications, and day-to-day activities. Each member brings both strategic insight and hands-on experience leading APPs in health systems across the state.
The Executive Committee meets monthly to implement PAAPL’s strategic priorities and serve as the operational engine of the organization
Standing Committees
PAAPL’s work is organized through a set of standing committees that reflect the core functions of our mission: policy, governance, education, and member engagement. These committees are the engines of the organization—advancing initiatives, generating resources, and ensuring PAAPL remains responsive to the needs of advanced practice leaders across the Commonwealth.
To ensure alignment and cross-functional leadership, all standing committee chairs hold a permanent seat on PAAPL’s Executive Committee. This structure guarantees that each committee has a direct voice in the organization’s strategy, operations, and decision-making processes.
