NSCAA Diversity Committee Formed
Under the direction of NSCAA President Louise Waxler, the Association has appointed its first Diversity Committee, which will be a standing committee per the NSCAA's bylaws.
 
The committee will serve as an umbrella group over the already established NSCAA multi-cultural committees - the Black Soccer Coaches Committee, the Latin American Soccer Coaches Committee, the Women's Committee and a pilot Native American Soccer Coaches Committee. In addition to its oversight function, the Diversity Committee will focus on developing an NSCAA diversity statement, critique and recommend changes in the NSCAA diversity training courses and explore other programming designed to expand the NSCAA's commitment to diversity.
 
Appointed to the committee were:

Charlotte Moran - interim committee chair, executive director of the Eastern Pennsylvania Youth Soccer Association and a member of the NSCAA Women's Committee.
 
Michelle Street - women's coach at Howard University and a member of the BSCC.

Marco Santillan - DeAnza Force SC (California), NSCAA Academy Associate National Staff and member of the LASCC.
 
Cela Shukie - America Scores, representing inner-city soccer programs.
 
Alec Rekow - director of Southwest Youth Services (New Mexico) and chair of the NASCC.
 
The NSCAA's First Vice-President (Steve Malone for the remainder of 2006; Al Albert in 2007) will serve as Diversity Committee liaison to the NSCAA Executive Committee, while NSCAA Executive Director Jim Sheldon will serve as staff liaison. Sheldon also serves as staff liaison to the BSCC, LASCC and NASCC.  Steve Veal, NSCAA associate executive director, serves as staff liaison to the Women's Committee.
