The CRAHD Board of Directors is a policy-making board providing input and guidance on the priorities of the department’s goals and operations. Consisting of one representative for every 10,000 residents or part thereof within each town, the board is made up of 7 directors; one from Deep River, Haddam, Chester, Killingworth and two each from the towns of Clinton and Old Saybrook. The directors are appointed by the town to serve a 3-year term. Terms overlap among directors for better continuity of the board.
