The 2019-2020 AIAS Governance Committee has compiled an entire Model Bylaws Document for use by the membership. These example Bylaws can be completely co-opted by new Chapters or bits and pieces of it can be adopted into existing Chapter Bylaws. Explanation in some parts provides a better understanding of how Bylaws work and why they’re so important to the governance of a local organization. The AIAS Board of Directors has endorsed the document and completely stands behind the processes and outlines defined herein.
