Bylaws create, organize and set the general guidelines by which this association operates. For example, the bylaws provide for a Board of Directors, Officers, the maintenance of a national headquarters, levels of membership, and much more.
In addition to the our bylaws, NAPNES (like most organizations with a similar structure) also uses Roberts Rules of Order New Revised Edition. This book gives additional instructions on the running of our association in the event our bylaws are silent on a certain subject.
It is important for all members to know the bylaws of the association. Bylaws govern how you participate in the organization, how you can become part of the leadership and your rights, responsibilities and privilidges as a member.
Depending on your relationship with NAPNES, you will be granted certain access to our bylaws. The current bylaws were revised at the 2007 National Convention:
