The House of Delegates serves as a representative body of the general membership and the representative body of the Chartered Affiliates of the Association (i.e. state societies). It participates in the establishment of the goals and objectives for the Association and participate in the governance of the Association. The House of Delegates has its own governance structure, policies and procedures, and committees.
The House of Delegates is made up of representatives from each of the chartered affiliates (all 50 states and Puerto Rico). Each chartered affiliate elects their own Delegates to represent them for all of the House of Delegates meetings. Each delegation collaborates with its chartered affiliate leadership to develop resolutions that reflect their members’ priorities and needs, formally presenting them at meetings for consideration by the board of directors.
If you are interested in knowing more about the House of Delegates, please contact your local chartered affiliate leadership.
