The Northeastern IPM Center’s Advisory Council (AC) provides broad vision and guidance to the Steering Committee and Center staff. Its members represent a wide range of groups that care about IPM, and they link the Center to stakeholder needs and priorities for IPM programs. Moreover, AC members are an important avenue for Center outreach, promoting awareness of the Center to their own constituencies and beyond. Participation in the AC affords its members the opportunity to communicate with and learn from each other. The AC recently established membership turnover guidelines, so participants may change over time. Below is a listing of current AC members.
