Policy Development

The policy positions which drive the programs of the Council are developed through a committee structure. The committees are made up of members interested in the various policy areas addressed by the Council.

The committees meet each year to analyze the previous positions and determine new directions that should be taken. Following the approval of these policy positions by the membership at the annual meeting, the Council's staff conducts their activities within the policies and relays members' concerns to the appropriate agency or individual.

Concerns that arise during the year can only be addressed within the written policies. Other issues not addressed by a policy can be supported or opposed only under express authorization of the board of directors.
