Submit resolutions and input to the IAFP Board of Directors and find Resolution writing resources

IAFP members have new ways to send formal requests to the Illinois AFP Board of Directors for their consideration.
The All-Member Assembly was dissolved at the November 2016 annual meeting and this new process was adopted by the IAFP board of directors in February 2017. Link to the 2016 resolution with details. 

How to submit proposals for consideration to the Illinois AFP

Send your email to [email protected].  Only current members in good standing may submit proposals to the IAFP Board of Directors. 
The email can be about IAFP policy or an action item request to the IAFP Board of Directors. Please include a preferred phone number in your email. 

The president will acknowledge your email and then triage your input in one of the following ways:

• Staff to assist with an informational item or a transactional item
• Refer it to the IAFP committee of relevant expertise for consideration
• Refer it to the Executive Committee or full board if that level of consideration is needed.

The IAFP staff or committee assigned will contact you directly to discuss the issue. If needed, you may be asked to present your request to the committee or to the board of directors (via phone or in person).
The board will receive a report of all member input collected via this process at each board meeting.
You will be informed of the status of your resolution or action item after the next scheduled board of directors meeting.
