Role of the State Chair and SECC Advisory Committee
 
The Governor may appoint the State Chair and Vice Chair from the Cabinet, the Council of State, the NC Community College System, or the consolidated university system. The State Chair leads and directs the annual campaign through oversight of the SECC Advisory Committee, a panel of volunteers who set the campaign’s strategic direction; authorize campaign policy; and approve campaign rules, programs and services. Members of the SECC Advisory Committee serve four-year terms and are appointed by the State Chair to assure diversity and cross-representation among the three branches of government including the consolidated university system. The SECC Advisory Committee meets at least quarterly and operates through various subcommittees: Strategic Planning, Marketing, Volunteer Programs, Regulations and Finance.
