Measurement, Allocations, and Learning (MALea)
Committee Members Needed

MALea Committee Overview

The Measurement, Allocations, and Learning (MALea) Committee is a standing committee of the Board of Directors of Smart Start of Forsyth County, Inc (SSFC). The MALea committee serves as the Board’s point of contact for setting priorities and guiding the investment of corporate resources to advance the vision and achieve the organization’s mission in alignment with SSFC’s strategic plan and consistent with the purpose and intent of specific funders and donors.

The MALea Committee includes up to (3) community volunteers. At least one of those volunteers must be a customer receiving SSFC services, e.g., parent, NC-PreK, and Roots participant. Members cannot have a “conflict of interest” in reviewing and recommending funding to any applicants. They cannot personally be affiliated with an applicant agency and cannot receive personal gain from the association. The Committee’s recommendations must align with the partnership’s mission and strategic plan and address performance-based standards.
