The constitution and bylaws have been updated by the Executive Board of Directors with assistance from ASHP. You can access a copy of the updated document via the link below. Please review the document as we will be voting on the proposed changes at our next meeting.

The following is a summary of the main points:

• We had the attorneys from ASHP review our bylaws to make suggestions.
• Almost all of the changes were editorial or to move many items from the bylaws to the Manual.
• The board reviewed all of the bylaws and determined which items would stay in the bylaws and which would go into the Manual.
• By moving items to the Manual the board could more readily make routine changes in procedural areas without requiring a membership vote.
• The only real item of significance is that the dues section was also moved to the Manual. This was a recommendation from ASHP.
