EDPAC
Board of Directors
The Empire Dental Political Action Committee is administered by a Board of Directors comprised of approximately 30 volunteer dentists who are members of the New York State Dental Association.
Thirteen members of the Board are chosen to represent each of the component societies of NYSDA. In addition, there are as many as ten “at-large” directors and the EDPAC Officers. The EDPAC Immediate Past Chair, the ADPAC Second Trustee District Board Member, the NYSDA Council on Governmental Affairs Chair and the ADA Second District Trustee are ex-officio members of the Board.
You are encouraged to contact any of EDPAC’s Board members or EDPAC at info@empiredentalpac.com with questions, concerns or input that you may have regarding officeholders or candidates for office. EDPAC would, in particular, like to hear from you if you treat a member of the legislature or key staff of an officeholder.
