Organizing DEC Chairs

First, thank you for serving as the organizing chair. The work of our local district executive committees is critical to the success of UIL. We appreciate your efforts to get the new alignment organized.

At the conclusion of the DEC meetings, the elected chairs will need to complete the district chair confirmation form located on the UIL website or accessed through the District Confirmation Form.
