Legacy Proclamation and Necrology Committee

Charge: The Legacy Proclamation and Necrology Committee (LPNC) operates on behalf of the CEC Board of Directors and is a collaborative effort between CEC and the Division of Leaders and Legacy (DLL). It supports CEC's commitment to honoring individuals who have made significant contributions to leadership and service to CEC and the field of special education. The LPNC is responsible for reviewing and recommending Legacy Proclamation nominees, preparing the annual necrology, and contributing to the preservation of CEC's historical record, including compiling biographical information of CEC Past Presidents.

Composition: The committee is composed of six members. One DLL member and one CEC member (not a member of DLL) will be selected to fill the two committee vacancies each year. The two members in their third year serve as co-chairs.
