 <title>NCSS Committees</title>
 <link>http://www.socialstudies.org/about/committees</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Operations committees carry out Board-mandated operations, duties, and policies, as well as many of the necessary business and organizational functions of the council. Operations committees relate their work to Board directives, the long-range plan of the council, and the leadership theme of the year set by the Board. They make recommendations to the Board and provide advice. &lt;span class=&#039;read-more&#039;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.socialstudies.org/about/committees&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;read&amp;nbsp;more&amp;nbsp;&amp;raquo;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
