Regional Structure
NALP
members within the United States fall into one of five regions:
Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, Southeast, Midwest, and West/Rocky Mountain.
Each of these general regions elects two representatives to the
Nominating Committee, two Regional Representatives, and one Conference Planning Coordinator. The Conference Planning
Coordinators play a significant role in planning and implementing
specific components of the Annual Education Conference. The
Nominating Committee solicits nominations for all NALP elected
positions, slates members for the Officer and Director positions, and
administers the election process. The Regional Representatives serve on the Regional Resource Council and facilitate the flow of information between members and the Board, identify regional issues and volunteer opportunities, and support the existing groups in the region (e.g. city groups).
At the 2006 NALP annual
business meeting, the bylaws were amended to permit creation of limited
regions, and in July 2006, the NALP Board of Directors voted to make
Canada NALP's first limited region. Limited regions elect one person to
serve on the Nominating Committee or as a Conference Planning Coordinator in
alternate years. Limited regions also elect one Regional Representative each year to serve a one-year term. Limited regions permit broader governance
participation by members who are in geographic areas that do not
currently have the numbers to support full regional status.

more detailed information about NALP's structure, nominations and
election process, and opportunities to become involved, visit the
