Regional Representatives
Regional Representatives
MAASE Regional Representatives serve as the voice of special education administrators across Michigan’s five regions. They provide two-way communication between members and the MAASE Board of Directors, support regional engagement, and help ensure statewide collaboration, advocacy, and leadership remain grounded in local needs.
What They Do
Regional Representatives gather feedback from members in their region, share updates from MAASE leadership, and help guide professional learning and advocacy priorities across Michigan.
Why It Matters
With five geographic regions across the state, this structure ensures that every member has a direct connection to statewide leadership and decision-making.
