A board member designated to monitor participation is referred to as what under SPS 7?

• A. Compliance officer
• B. Board liaison in SPS 7
• C. Program director
• D. Secretary of ethics

Answer: (B)

Under SPS 7, the board designates a member to oversee participation, and this role is called the board liaison. This person serves as the official link between the board and those under supervision, with responsibilities like monitoring participation, collecting relevant information, and communicating findings or concerns back to the board. It’s a specific board-level designation rather than a generic staff title, which is why it’s distinct from a compliance officer, a program director, or a role like secretary of ethics.
